Israel 2022 election (November 1st)

[Logical]

Israeli exit polls are practically voodoo and not worth your time.

[Antonio the Sixth]

Well, here we go. Can someone link to the results page?

Also when will we know the final turnout number?

[jaichind]

I assume https://votes25.bechirot.gov.il/ is the results page

[Darthpi – Anti-Florida Activist]

If Netanyahu returns to power with this extreme-right coalition, any pretense of abiding by the Oslo accords is going to be gone.

[Filuwaúrdjan]

Getting actual feelings of déjà vu now.

Exit polls:

61-59 in favor of Bibi

God... here we go again.

There were 4 exit polls, 2 have 62 for Bibi and 2 have 61.

[Comrade Funk]

The only victor is the BDS movement. Good job.

[Antonio the Sixth]

Also when will we know the final turnout number?

Any idea on that? That seems like a big deal given the nature of the unknowns here.

Is there a link to those 4 exit polls and the seat breakdown for each party ?

I think Balad gets in. Channel 11 has them .15% away, and the prison vote alone should cover that.

All 4 exit polls seem to have them falling below.  So if they get in then it will upend all these projections.

[Grand Wizard Lizard of the Klan]

So, now literal kahanists are going to be part of a government?

How's the weather in 2009?

Okay, even farther gone and beyond the possibility of ever returning than it already was.

Never underestimate the possibility of things getting worse.

Every exit poll in 2021 has Raam not making it past the threshold. No one has good idea about Arab turnout except for the Arab parties themselves.

Lapid dropped bombs from the air a few weeks ago in the West Bank. First time in 20 years. I don't think this election changes the balance at all.

This is what happens when a country isn't held accountable for upholding apartheid. South Africa was eventually and they had to change.

Parties that are at least *hypothetically* open to *some form* of negotiations and peace *at some point* - even if they are working against peaceful negotiations at the present - are still better than a government that will include people like Ben-Gvir who are openly in favor of ethnic cleansing of the Arab minority in Israel, support large-scale annexations of Palestinian land as soon possible, and who oppose any form of negotiated peace ever.

Everything is bad! But not everything is equally bad!

There are differences between the coalitions. I don't think there are meaningful differences in practice in this issue (which wasn't even debated much this election). Ben-Gvir says the quiet part loud but I don't think he can outmanoever Netanyahu significantly. More likely that there would be mass deportation of African refugees.

Ok so Denmark has also voted today and is 40% counted after 2 hours.

I doubt we will see hardly any results from Israel within 2 hours, why does it count so slowly?

Netanyahu warns of vote fraud in Arab villages, he's starting the stop the steal

Everyone knows why Israel is held to a different standard.
