Channel 12 has updated its exit poll figures again, showing dwindling support for a possible pro-Benjamin Netanyahu bloc.
Likud has dropped down to 30 seats, and Yamina has lost a seat, falling to 7.
Shas moves back up to 9 seats and Blue and White drops back to 7 seats.
The net effect is 61 seats for an anti-Netanyahu amalgam of parties, 52 seats for the right-religious parties backing Likud, and Yamina in the middle with 7, meaning that even with Yamina’s support, Likud would not be able to form a government.
Pollster Manu Geva says the next exit poll update will be the last, with actual results expected to begin trickling in.
Help us report truthfully on social media
As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
If you believe in the importance of factual social media journalism, please consider joining our reader support group, The Times of Israel Community. Your financial support is essential to sustain responsible multimedia reporting.
