I'm also hearing that Netanyahu is wanting to form a right wing bloc with Naftali Bennett.
So....how does building a coalition work - is it the winner who has to try to build it or can any of the groups try to form coalitions to build a majority?

Channel 2 is the central channel, actually. I follow channel 10 because it's more comfortably arrenged for the viewer, but it's also credible.

I'm also reading via twitter that if exit polls are confirmed, Yachad will fail to make the Knesset.

The leading parties try to assemble a coalition, but they can aso fail in doing so. That what happened with Tzipi Livni years ago. She won by voted, but couldn't assemble a coalition, so Bibi rose as PM with the Likud.
They have the right to vote in elections for the P.A. it is hamas that is stopping the elections from taking place. But remember if you give the arab muslims the Israeli vote then you also give Israel the arab muslim vote. Now where would that leave the arab muslims ?
What next giving the arab muslims the vote in America, UK, France, Germany etc.

Theoretically, yes. But we know for sure only once the soldiers' votes are counted, as well.

It looks to me like Netanyahu has the clear path to form a coalition once again. Thursday is judgement day, though. Let's not get too excited...

Agreed.

Which is kind of Ironic, considering he fired in the tank and now Bennett is more than pissed.
Interesting - so who ever can finagle a majority through a coalition is the winner...must make for some strange bedmates at times.
It's all going to come down to Kulanu. Both sides have a "clear path" if they get Kahlon.
It is all down to what concessions the leading party is prepared to offer the lower ranked parties, and then on what the lower ranked parties will accept. We in the UK face a similar situation in May when we hold our national elections, already the major parties are playing footsy with the minor ones to garner support. Nothing is settled until the results are in and the numbers are worked out. Labour are talking with the SNP because the SNP look like taking all the votes in Scotland, then the SNP will push for independence before the end of the next parliament. The Tories are looking at a possible marriage of lib dems or UKIP as the next government. Too many fingers in the pie will not be good for anyone.

It would be difficult for the Likud to gain his support again.
You have a problem?
