Israeli Election Exit Polls Show Netanyahu Bloc Weakened

Activists from the "Yesh!" party celebrated Tuesday evening as exit poll results indicated a weakening of the Benjamin Netanyahu bloc, projecting it to secure only 50 seats. At the party's Tel Aviv headquarters, participants chanted "Bibi, go home." Yair Golan, chairman of the Democratic Party, also commented on the polls, stating, "The public has spoken and fired the Netanyahu government." He added, "We have received a historic opportunity to establish a true government of change in Israel, and we will not give it up. We represent a huge public that has fought in the streets for four years, that joined the party and went out to convince. We will do everything to ensure such a government is formed." Golan continued, "We are ready to work with all our partners, bridge the gaps, and take responsibility. The public has spoken. Now it's our turn to do the work." Another poll by "Kahn News" suggested no clear winner, with the "Izankot bloc" emerging as the largest, potentially holding the keys to a 61-seat majority for either Izankot or Netanyahu.
