As the clock ticks down to polls closing at 10 p.m., some parties are continuing to frantically urge supporters to the ballot box.
“Right-wing rule is in danger due to Likud voters staying at home,” party head Benjamin Netanyahu tweets. Go now to vote to save the right-wing government at the last moment. Make sure to bring as many Likud voters as possible.”
New Hope head Gideon Saar is warning that Likud leader Netanyahu is “close to his 61st seat if you don’t vote now.”
“Bring friends,” he says in a video.
Blue and White head Benny Gantz, meanwhile, is continuing to push against Yesh Atid leader Yair Lapid, releasing a slickly produced video accusing him of spreading “fake news,” for claiming that Blue and White is doing well.
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.
