Very interesting exit polls! While the ostensible blocks are roughly as the polls predicted (52-18-50), the balance within the blocks is vastly different. The Likud maintained its status as the country's largest party at the expense of its allies, from whom it seems to have sucked a lot of votes, especially Shas and Ben-Gvir. Eisenkot and his merry men failed to become the largest party due to his allies getting more votes than predicted. The Arabs were the biggest surprise of the elections. They have vastly overperformed, especially the pragmatic Islamist party Ra'am. Now the question on everyone's mind is: will the Zionist parties manage to put their differences aside and form the government most of the nation wants or will something retarded happen?
