Israel Election: Arab and Ultra-Orthodox Parties Could Hold the Balance of Power
Arab-led parties and ultra-Orthodox Jewish parties are being attacked on Israel's campaign trail but may emerge as kingmakers after the October 27 vote, with neither major bloc likely to secure an outright majority in the 120-seat Knesset. Polls project Ra'am and the Joint List at 13 seats combined, while Shas and United Torah Judaism each poll at 7-8 seats.
