27 Ekim 2026Bloomberg

Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu appears to be trailing challenger Eisenkot according to three exit polls. Voter turnout is at a record high.
Three exit polls indicate that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is currently trailing his opponent, Gadi Eisenkot. Voter turnout has reached record levels, suggesting heightened public interest in this election.
Despite the polling data, the outcome remains uncertain as the race is still too close to call. Bloomberg's Dan Williams provides updates from Jerusalem.
Netanyahu has been a dominant figure in Israeli politics for over a decade, but recent controversies and challenges may have swayed public opinion. Eisenkot, a former military chief, represents a new alternative that could appeal to voters seeking a different direction.
The close race between Netanyahu and Eisenkot reflects a significant shift in Israeli politics, where voter engagement appears to be at an all-time high. This could suggest a growing desire for change among the electorate, particularly in light of recent political challenges faced by Netanyahu's administration.
