Lali Darai and television presenter Netali Sham Tov were seen dancing following the publication of exit polls for the 26th Knesset elections, which indicated that Ofer Vinter's party did not pass the electoral threshold. The dancing occurred as initial results suggested Vinter's party would not secure enough votes to enter the Knesset. Simultaneously, sharp criticism emerged from within the coalition regarding Vinter's decision to run in the elections. While these are only exit polls and final results are pending, the preliminary data showed Vinter's party failing to cross the required percentage of votes in all published surveys. A senior coalition official claimed that Vinter's candidacy harmed the right-wing bloc's chances of achieving a Knesset majority, stating that if Vinter had not insisted on running, the right would have won decisively. The dancing by Darai and Sham Tov took place as political discourse also focused on votes cast for parties that did not pass the threshold according to the polls.
