Repeat elections are even beneficial to Netanyahu, not the extreme right, together with Netanyahu's Likud, and neither the opposition were able to turn the situation around, and the splitting of society exactly in two remains the main result of the parliamentary elections in Israel. The ruling camp has 53 mandates, the opposition 48. The main "miracle" of the parliamentary elections: Arab parties take a record 19 seats. The situation in the blocs is at an impasse and will likely require repeat elections to resolve it. To confirm, both camps lack 8-13 decent mandates, and no one will be able to collect the decisive 61 out of 120 without Arab votes. If there are new elections, then Netanyahu will continue to rule the country until then. Links.
