As polls get set to close in Israel with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu facing a tight reelection battle, keep in mind that Israeli exit polls are just as unreliable as American ones.
Voting stations will close at 3 p.m. Eastern time, and the early exits are expected to drip out around then. But it won’t be until much later that we get a sense of how the actual vote turned out, and if things were close, it will take days or longer to figure out the next prime minister.
