Vote tally shows New Right falls short of entering next Knesset

The Central Elections Committee publishes its tally of the votes in this week’s elections, showing that the New Right party fell short of the 3.25% electoral threshold.

The results also show the ruling Likud party gaining one seat to win 36 — one more than the rival Blue and White party — at the expense of United Torah Judaism, which falls to seven seats.

In the tally, which the Central Elections Committee says could yet change, the right-wing bloc maintains a 65-55 lead over the center-left and the Arab parties.
