According to the first stage, there are no clear winners until it is predicted that Netanyah's party wins 22 to 36 seats in Parliament, while Gantz's party is expected to win 36 or 37 seats.
Despite unclear results, the two candidates have declared victory.
According to the first polls, the right-wing parties allied with Netanyahu were most likely to form a governing coalition and thus win elections, but are not entirely exempt from possible co-operation with former commander Gantz.

GANTZ is chairman of the “White Knight” coalition and is challenging Netanyah on key security issues, promising cleaner politics.
On the other hand, the Labour Party, which had signed a peace agreement with Palestinians in the nineties, has lost the support of the people in recent years./ P ERISCOPIA
