These are the official certified results that were handed today to President Rivlin by Central Election Committee Chairman Justice Meltzer. The most significant change between the interim results that were released Thursday night and the official results today is that UTJ gained a seat at the expense of Likud.

President Rivlin, who has already completed his Phase 2 consultations, announced that later today he will officially ask Prime Minister Netanyahu to form the next government.

Yesterday I released the results of the top 10 populated cities. I compared the 2019 results to the results in 2015 and 2013 to provide context. In this post I provide the complete Top 20 Model that includes the cities that are rated 11-20 in terms of population.

In future posts I will examine specific areas of interest of the 2019 election and compare them to the previous election results from 2015.

Notes: 2013 Likud results include Yisrael Beitenu. Blue & White is being compared to Yesh Atid in 2015 & 2013. Both Hadash-Taal & Raam-Balad are being compared to The Joint List in 2015 & a combo of the four parties in 2013. Labor is being compared to the Zionist Union in 2015 and Labor + The Livni party in 2013. Yisrael Beltenu ran in 2013 with the Likud. Kulanu did not run in the 2013 elections. HaYamin HeHadash’s results are being compared to 2015 & 2013 Bayit Yehudi results.

Tonight I am releasing the results in the top 10 populated cities. The 2019 results are being compared to results in 2015 and 2013 to provide context.

In the next post I will release the results of the cities that are rated 11-20 in terms of population.
