Voter turnout in Israel's 26th Knesset elections has reached a 50-year high, with 31.5% of eligible voters casting ballots by noon on election day. News commentator Amit Segal described the participation rate as "a phenomenon that hasn't been seen for many years," noting that such a figure at this hour has not been recorded since 1973.
Segal highlighted that the increased turnout is not concentrated in one specific demographic or region. He observed particularly high participation in strongholds of Arab parties, contributing significantly to the overall rise. Simultaneously, areas associated with center-left parties are showing strong engagement, as are traditional strongholds of the Likud party.
However, Segal cautioned that a clear picture of turnout among the Haredi (ultra-Orthodox) public is not yet available, making it premature to determine the exact distribution of votes across all political groups. "We are approaching the middle of the day and it's starting to get very dramatic," Segal commented as the election day progressed.
