Israelis voting on border policy, not parties

This is going to be a huge election, and it's a shame that Sharon is still in the hospital. I'll definitely be glued to CNN all day on Tuesday.

Israelis go to the polls

It looks like Kadima might have a slight lead in the polls right now. I hope they win. Palestine has already gone backwards, electing a terrorist group into office. Israel doesn't need to step back, too.

Here are some rough election results:

Kadima: 29-32 seats
Labor Party: 20-22 seats
Yisrael Beitenu Party: 12-14 seats
Likud: Less than 12 seats

There are 120 seats in the Knesset. I was hoping Kadima would take more than just 32, but at least they took the most. I think a coalition with the Yisrael Beitenu and Likud parties is out of the question. They'll more than likely team up with the Labor Party.
