Jerusalem, 29 October, 2026 (TPS-IL) — Israel’s Central Elections Committee announced Thursday that as of 7:00 AM, results from 11,855 of the country’s 12,018 regular polling stations have been processed following the 26th Knesset elections.
A total of 5,191,912 ballots have been logged from these stations, including 5,168,955 valid votes and 22,957 invalidated ballots. Electoral officials emphasized that these partial figures reflect only standard polling locations.
Processing and verification of hundreds of thousands of “external” double envelopes—cast by military personnel, diplomats, hospitalized citizens, and voters at special stations—began overnight, with updates expected later today.
Officials noted that figures remain partial and subject to revision as final checks, data control procedures, and external envelope tallies progress.
