In Jerusalem's Kiryat Yovel neighborhood, a diverse community of secular, traditional, and Haredi residents is casting their votes. At the Agaron School polling station, historically reflective of national results, parties associated with the "change bloc" showed a strong presence. Large images of Gadi Eisenkot, Naftali Bennett, and Avigdor Lieberman adorned the area, with a life-sized sign of Yair Golan also drawing attention. "I hesitated until the last moment," said Yulia Mastachkin, who voted with her mother, Ludmila Mastachkin. "We both really debated between Bennett and Eisenkot, but at least there's a choice." However, a polling station located just 140 meters away indicated a strong showing for the Netanyahu bloc.
