Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu succeeded, according to the three TV channels, to increase Likud's power from 32 to 37-36 seats, despite three indictments, despite vicious criticism of Blue and White, Labor-Meretz Bridge and Avigdor Lieberman, despite media mobilization Of journalists who have long become decent and objective commentators with the sole purpose of seeing Netanyahu go to jail, this is a huge achievement.

Netanyahu won his life's battle for public trust. Although his trial opens on the 17th, he leaves the election on an upright floor. A wide public of citizens who came out of their homes to support the Likud, first of all, expressed their confidence in Netanyahu, protesting the charges against him, the legal system and the police, and all those who ignored his many achievements as prime minister, and had the courage and impudence to claim that he acted only for himself to extricate himself. His soul from prison.

Former Chief of Staff Benny Gantz suffered a burst of failure. He allegedly retained the power of a blue-and-white with 33 seats. But he, along with fellow Cockpit Gabi Ashkenazi, Yair Lapid and Moshe Ya'alon, failed to convince the public that they had the ability to accept Gantz's political inexperience and recent media publications on the "fifth dimension" were in his mind.

The results of the polls make it difficult for Netanyahu to form a government because he has the support of only 60 MKs from Likud factions, the right, Torah Judaism and Shas. In contrast, the center-left bloc has only 41-39 MKs (blue-white and Labor-Meretz Bridge). Even if Lieberman joins them, they have 47 MKs. Assuming that the joint list also agrees to cooperate with Gantz, he can at best set up a block of 60 MKs.

One thing is for sure, President Reuben Rivlin will have no decision on who to lay the government train next week. Netanyahu is the only candidate, and he has more than one option to succeed.
