Israel's Central Elections Committee estimates that between 430,000 and 480,000 "double envelopes" will be counted in the 26th Knesset elections. These envelopes typically contain votes from individuals who cast ballots outside their designated polling stations, such as soldiers serving abroad or Israelis voting from overseas.
The counting process is scheduled to commence around 1:00 AM on Thursday and is expected to conclude by Thursday evening. The results from these double envelopes are crucial as they can potentially influence the final distribution of seats in the Knesset, especially in close elections.
