I tend to avoid guessing when it comes to Israeli politics. We've seen too many times that anything can happen. But to your question: I'd guess low. That is at least what I'm hearing from Blue & White members. On other hand, there is contact w/ @Likud_Party. Minimal, but still.

Both #BenjaminNetanyahu & #BennyGantz claim victory in the #IsraelElection2019 - but it appears the PM has the edge when it comes to forming a governing coalition. We get analysis from @yaakovkatz @Jerusalem_Post pic.twitter.com/WSP13Gieqj

Possible although Kulanu has said in the past that it would not support it so difficult to see how he gets it through.

.@netanyahu showed that he’s a magician. He decimated right-wing partners but kept just enough to make a govt. 3 IDF chiefs & pending indictment weren’t enough to take him down. But now he’s vulnerable. His partners will be able to continuously extort him due to legal situation.

The narrative of #IsraElex19 will be written once we know the real turnout figures in the different towns and neighborhoods, some time tomorrow. If the Arab turnout is indeed as drastically low as we're hearing, Likud's intimidation campaign of hidden cameras will be blamed.

So many mistakes here but I’ll point out two: 1) Netanyahu did not annex the Golan. Menachem Begin applied Israeli law there in 1981. What happened now was that @realDonaldTrump recognized it. 2) Stopping Iran’s nuclear program won’t lead to nuclear war. It’ll prevent it. twitter.com/tulsigabbard/s…

Israel is again proving today that despite living in most dangerous region in the world next to enemies bent on our destruction, we celebrate life, freedom & democracy. You don’t have to agree with who Israelis elect, but don’t patronize a people who have the freedom to do so.

As voting starts, a word to Israel’s friends in US-Europe: While Israelis might appreciate your advice & concern, telling us who to vote for or that the results of the election (whatever they’ll be) will be a blow to democracy does one thing: turns people away.

And one member of the French parliament - @Meyer_Habib, a longtime confidant of Netanyahu who helped his own campaign ahead of the 2017 French election.
