As the 26th Knesset elections conclude, preliminary results show Yoaz Hendel's Reservists and Economic party and Ofer Winter's Am Israel party both falling below the electoral threshold. Hendel's party has garnered 2.72% of the votes counted so far, with 57,666 votes, while Winter's party has received 1.77%, totaling 37,472 votes. Both parties need to reach 3.25% of the total valid votes to enter the Knesset.
With approximately 2.1 million votes counted as of Wednesday morning, hundreds of thousands more ballots remain to be tallied. These include votes from soldiers and other special populations, which are cast via double envelopes and could potentially alter the final results. However, even with additional votes, it is uncertain if either party will reach the required percentage.
The number of votes needed to cross the threshold increases as more votes are counted. For example, if the final tally reaches 5.7 million valid votes, a party would need at least 185,000 votes to enter the Knesset. Currently, both Hendel and Winter are outside the Knesset based on the partial results, and the final outcome hinges on the remaining votes.
