Netanyahu's Party Odds Jump on Exit Polls
- On Tuesday, October 27, 2026, exit polls indicated Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's Likud party leads Israel's parliamentary election, yet neither major political bloc secured the 61 seats required for a Knesset majority.
- Voters participated at record 74.3% turnout, the highest since 1988, as the country remains nearly evenly split between Netanyahu's allies and the opposition bloc led by former army chief Gadi Eizenkot's new Yashar party.
- Channel 12 projected a 52-50 seat split favoring the opposition, while Channel 13 predicted a 53-50 margin; both show Likud at 24 to 25 seats, ahead of Yashar's 21 to 22.
- Prediction markets currently give Likud an 80% chance of winning the most seats, though Central Elections Committee officials cautioned that counting over 650,000 special ballots may extend until Friday.
- Coalition talks will determine Israel's next government, as parties must now navigate the 61-seat threshold to control the Knesset following official results.
