- Former MK Osnat Mark warned of Israel's collapse in 5 years if the right-wing loses the election.
- Voter turnout reached a 45-year high by 10 AM on election day.
- Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich attributed high turnout to Arab and left-wing voters.
- Mark urged right-wing voters to go to the polls and not relax their efforts.
Former Knesset Member Osnat Mark urged right-wing voters to turn out in large numbers for the 26th Knesset elections, warning that a loss for the bloc could lead to the end of Israel within five years. "We must not take our foot off the gas! The people of Israel need to understand that if we lose today, God forbid, in five years there will be no State of Israel," Mark stated in an interview.
Her stark warning comes amid record-breaking voter turnout. By 10:00 AM on election day, 16.68% of eligible voters had cast their ballots, the highest figure for that time of day in 45 years. This represents a slight increase compared to the November 2022 elections, when turnout was 15.9% at the same hour.
Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich commented on the high turnout, attributing the surge to an unusual mobilization of voters in the Arab sector and in left-wing strongholds. He suggested these demographics were driving the record participation rates.
