So it seems that right now the right and left blocks are tied at 60-60 with 99% of the vote counted. Close elections like this are so much fun
Which parties do you include in 'right' and 'left' blocs?
As it stands now Likud-Beitenu has 31 seats and Jewish Home 11, totalling 42 seats for the conservative Zionist bloc. The religious conservatives Shas (11) and United Torah and Judaism (7) have 18 seats. So, yes, the right has 60 seats.
On the other side Kadima (2) or Hatnuah (6), which are centrist parties being generous, can hardly being considered as part of any 'left'. In any case, they could form a centre-left bloc (or so) with Labour (15) and Yesh Atid (19) which adds 42 seats. Then we have the socialdemocrat/green Meretz (6) and the communist/socialist Hadash (4), which can be considered as left-wing parties, totalling 10 seats. Finally the United Arab List (5) and Balad (3) have 8 seats. The first party is described simply as a religious and nationalist Arab party, while Balad seems to be a secular Arab nationalist one. I can hardly see this half of the Knesset as an homogeneous 'leftist' bloc, not to mention that Arab parties have never been part of any Israeli government.
