About 600,000 duplicate ballots remain to be counted after the "Israel" elections on October 27, which may affect the final distribution of Knesset seats. By eligible voters who cannot vote at their assigned polling stations, these ballots are further verified to prevent duplicate voting while maintaining the confidentiality of the vote. Historically, they tend to support the Zionist parties over the Arab and ultra-Orthodox parties, although the large number of reservists serving across the political spectrum makes this year's impact harder to predict. Without a bloc that currently reaches the 61 seats required by the majority, the final count may affect the political balance and the negotiations on the formation of the next government.
