Netanyahu fails again to form new Israeli government, opening door for political rival [View all]
https://www.cnn.com/2019/10/21/middleeast/israel-netanyahu-government-intl/index.htmlWhat are the chances that Gentz will be able to form a coalition?
Blue/White have 33 mandates
Joint list 13
Labor/Gesher 6
Democratic union 5
That is a total of 57.
They would need either Likud (sans bibi) or Yisrael Beiteinu support to form a coalition.
They MIGHT be able to form a shaky minority government with 57 seats, with YB giving support to the coalition without officially joining the coalition.
