Netanyahu, Eisenkot blocs running close, but both shy of majority
TEL AVIV, Israel — Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's far-right coalition is running nearly even with Gadi Eisenkot's opposition bloc in Tuesday's historic election — but both are short of a 61-seat majority, according to Israeli exit polls.
What the coverage shows
Both outlets foreground the same broad takeaway from the exit polls: Netanyahu’s bloc is projected to fall short and there is no clear winner. Axios is more specific about the seat count, saying Eisenkot’s bloc is at 52 to 53 seats and Netanyahu’s at 50, while 60 Minutes frames the result more generally as a majority of Israelis voting against Netanyahu; only Axios mentions Arab parties in its extract.
