Smotrich on high voter turnout: 'Don't throw your vote away'
Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich addressed the high voter turnout, claiming that it was driven by unusually high turnout among Arab voters and in left-wing strongholds. According to Smotrich, based on the published figures, "There is absolutely no chance that the parties currently polling below the electoral threshold will cross it." Smotrich urged voters to support only parties certain to cross the electoral threshold: "I call on you, dear voters: Vote only for parties that are certain to cross the electoral threshold. Don't throw your vote away."
