Losing advantage: The left surges, the Arabs double their power – and the right is lagging behind

A historic record of 55.7% national turnout by 4:00 PM in the elections for the 26th Knesset, but a breakdown reveals a surge in left-wing strongholds (55%) and an almost doubling in the Arab sector (49%), while the right stands at only 50%. In right-wing headquarters, voters are being called to go to the polls.

Voting data as of 4:00 PM in the elections for the 26th Knesset reveals a historic record of 55.7% national turnout, but a sectoral breakdown worries the national camp: in left-wing strongholds, 55% turnout is recorded (compared to 45% in the previous elections), in the Arab sector it has almost doubled to 49% (compared to 26%), while in right-wing strongholds it is only 50% (compared to 44%). The Central Elections Committee reported 4,085,075 voters by this hour. Acting Director General of the Committee, Adv. Dean Livneh, estimated that at the current rate, the 80% turnout record could be broken by the end of the day. Following the data, right-wing headquarters launched emergency calls for voters to go to the polls. The article uses terms like 'alarming surge', 'shocking figure', and 'dangerous advantage' to describe the voting data, focusing on the threat to right-wing rule.
