Absentee ballots hold key to elections as Likud holds 30-seat lead, Ra'am drops to 4

 

With nearly four million votes counted by 6 a.m. Thursday, the political map is beginning to stabilize. Meretz goes up to six seats; Yamina holds linchpin position.

The Central Election Committee on Thursday began counting the double envelopes holding hundreds of thousands of votes that could be worth as many as 12 seats.

As of 8:40  a.m., 93.4% of the votes cast in the March 23 elections have been counted. The results so far are as follows:

These results give the right-wing bloc 52 mandates and the Center-Left bloc 56 seats. Yamina and Ra'am hold the key to the elections, as they can side with either bloc.

Voter turnout in this year's election was particularly low, with only 67.2% – the lowest in the last four election campaigns.

Central Election Committee head Orly Adas said the final results are likely to come in on Friday.
