Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu's Likud is expected to emerge as the largest party in Israel's legislative elections, and will win 25 seats compared to 21 for Gadi Eisenkots Isr, according to the Kens exit poll cited in the "Times of Israel". However, Netanyahu's opponents are expected to hold a larger bloc, with 53 seats compared to 50 for the Netanyahu-led camp, while Arab-led parties are expected to secure 17 seats. Since no party reached the 61 seats needed for a parliamentary majority, the results do not offer a clear path to forming a government. Netanyahu may get the first chance to form a coalition, but if both camps fail, "Israel" could face another election, which could revive the prolonged political deadlock between 2019 and 2022.
