If Israel's current exit polls hold, the parties representing the Jewish center will have to make a choice: partner with Arab parties or else keep Bibi in power.
A pretty clear metaphor for the choice facing Israel more broadly.

Two takeaways based on exit polls:
First, neither camp has a a clear path to forming a coalition. That leaves us with a simple but unavoidable conclusion: for Israel to have a government in the coming weeks, someone is going to have to break a campaign promise. It could be Eisenkot deciding to form a government with the support of Ra’am, the Arab party led by Mansour Abbas. It could be Bennett, Liberman or even Eisenkot deciding to cross the partisan line and join a government with Netanyahu.
The second takeaway is that a decisive majority of Israelis are opposed to Netanyahu and want to see him out of office. Based on projections, approximately 70 seats voted for parties - Jewish and Arab - committed to ousting Netanyahu.
That does not mean all 70 support Eisenkot or that they can necessarily sit together in one government. But it does mean that Netanyahu and his coalition have lost the support of a majority of the electorate.

George W. and Laura Bush are backing James Talarico against Trump's terrible candidate Ken Paxton
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The article shown names Barbara Bush, daughter of George W. and Laura Bush, who gave $2,500 to a PAC backing Talarico, and George W.'s brother Neil Bush, who said he voted for Talarico. It does not report that George W. or Laura Bush back him. hoodline.com/2026/10/second…
Tonight - Serbia feels like the new Hungary - over throwing of a Russia friendly / Putin sympathising leader for something genuinely new - in Serbias case a student led party . Does this shift dynamics in the war on Ukraine ? And with the shape of the EU?
I have just spoken by phone with the leaders of the Students' List @studentblokade, who won the elections in Serbia, to congratulate them on their victory. I assured them of Hungary’s support. I was delighted to hear how much strength our victory in April had given them during this difficult struggle.

The MAGA influencers weren't enough to save Putin's favorite candidate in the Serbian elections.
Vucic has just conceded.

There is something deeply wrong with a political system that allows one trillionaire to buy his own personal U.S. Senator.

BREAKING: The Dallas Morning News just announced they are endorsing James Talarico over Ken Paxton. The Dallas Morning News had previously endorsed Senator John Cornyn in every race he ever ran. This is amazing.

NEW AD: “Ken Paxton says I don't have his experience — and he's right.
I’ve never been indicted for fraud. I’ve never been reported to the FBI for bribery. I’ve never been impeached by my own party.
And I’ve never given a sweetheart deal to a pedophile.”
