What will happen in Israel's very exciting Tuesday election?

On Tuesday, Israelis will vote in a new election. The opinion polls suggest that the race for Israel’s next prime minister is between incumbent Benjamin “Bibi” Netanyahu and Benny Gantz.

This election is a rerun following an April election which failed to give Netanyahu a stable coalition. Once again, opinion polls show a near dead heat. The final pre-election polls released by Israeli channels 12 and 13 on Friday suggest that Netanyahu’s Likud party and Benny Gantz-Yair Lapid’s center-left Blue-White coalition will each win 32 seats. With 61 seats needed to command a majority in the Knesset, coalition-building will be critical. That’s where things start to get very interesting.
