Projections in the Israeli election show Likud with a very strong showing and likely to win 35 seats, Shinui and Labor just about tied with Labor maybe managing to eke out 18 seats over Shinui's 15-17, Shas pulverized down to 9-12 and Meretz thoroughly embarrassed with around 7.
UPDATE: With 100% of the polling station vote counted, Likud appears to have 37 seats, Labor 19, Shinui 15, Shas 11, Meretz 6.
Meanwhile, this is probably one of the most disgusting things I've seen in quite a while. Charles (with a clue from a reader or two) has even found the "artistic" inspiration. I'm struck dumb.
