Shaked hails Jewish Home for staying in race despite poor results: ‘We fought like lions’

Jewish Home leader Ayelet Shaked hails her party for remaining in the race until today’s election, despite exit polls forecasting it to end up well below the minimum vote threshold.

“We fought like lions. We knew it was a very difficult battle, but we went with our truth, our ideology,” she says in a statement.

She also congratulates opposition leader Benjamin Netanyahu, whose right-religious bloc was forecast to win a narrow majority in the exit polls.
