Exit polls from Kan 11, Channel 12 and Channel 13 project 50 seats for the Netanyahu-led bloc, 52 for the opposition bloc and 18 for Ra’am and the Joint List, which are not assigned to either bloc in the report. The figures come from Reuters’ summary updated on October 27, 2026 at 21:05 UTC. These are exit-poll estimates, not official vote-count results.
What the projections mean
Party-level seat allocations differ between the polls, but the reviewed summary shows the same bloc totals. Neither main bloc reaches 61 seats in the 120-member Knesset.
This does not establish who will form a government. Counted results may differ from exit polls, and parties will still need to reach agreements. A report’s grouping of parties does not constitute a commitment to future cooperation.
What to watch next
Exit polls, official counting results and the ability to assemble support for a government are three separate stages. Each can change the political picture. This update describes the exit-poll stage only and does not predict the identity of the next prime minister.
Implications for the public and businesses
The practical test will be the ability to establish a functioning government and make decisions on security, the cost of living, public services and immigrant integration. This is a public and business consideration, not a claim that a policy has been approved or a coalition formed.
Readers should follow election-authority updates and verified reporting rather than treat exit-poll graphics as final results. This summary does not endorse a party.
