At the presidential level, three coalitions are contesting the office: The [[Right Bloc]] ([[Royalist Conservative Party (Yisrael)|Conservatives]], [[Electoral_College_in_Yisrael#Third-party_impact|cross-endorsed]] by the [[League for New Judea|Northern League]] and [[Torah Achdus]]), the [[United Center Bloc]] (the [[Alternative for Yisrael]] cross-endorsed by [[Action Yisrael]]), and the [[Left Bloc]] (the [[Constitutional Liberal Party|Constitutional Liberals]] cross-endorsed by the [[Alliance of Greens, Seculars, and Workers]]).

Royalist Conservative Party

The 2020 Yisraeli general election was held on January 27, 2020. It featured elections for President and the full Knesset, as well as some District gubernatorial and legislative seats and a litany of local municipal offices. This election was the first to feature a three-party contest for the presidency, and the the first in decades that realigned the Right-Left bloc ideological alignment of the Knesset, with the United Center Bloc displacing the Left as the chief opposition group.

Background

Electoral system

The presidential election is determined by an electoral college in which the plurality majority vote winner in each district wins that jurisdiction's electoral votes, with a majority of 97 EVs needed to secure a majority of the 192-vote College.

The Knesset and other elections are plurality majority direct elections in single-member districts using a first-past-the-post electoral system.

Voting eligibility

To be eligible to vote in the election, one must be:

  • registered to vote with the Royal Yisraeli Election Commission;
  • aged 21 years old by the registration deadline of September 27, 2019;
  • a Yisraeli citizen; and
  • not excluded from voting (whether by legal incompetency, found guilty of or convicted of a felony, etc.) or not disqualified from voting.

Timetable

June 27, 2019 Royal Yisraeli Election Commission staff prepared balloting and election machines for upcoming elections.
September 2, 2019 Major parties (traditionally the Conservatives and Constitutional Liberals) hold their presidential nomination conventions. Unofficial kickoff of the general election season begins.
September 27, 2019 Last day to register to vote.
November 27, 2019 Last day for independents and new parties to file to run for office on the ballot.
January 27, 2020 Election Day: National polls opened at 6am and closed at 7pm.
January 28, 2020 Election results were verified and released publicly.
February 3, 2020 The President-elect and Members-elect of Knesset and local offices were sworn in.

Coalitions and parties

At the presidential level, three coalitions contested the office: The Right Bloc (Conservatives, cross-endorsed by the Northern League and Torah Achdus), the United Center Bloc (the Alternative for Yisrael cross-endorsed by Action Yisrael), and the Left Bloc (the Constitutional Liberals cross-endorsed by the Alliance of Greens, Seculars, and Workers).

At the Knesset and conditionally at the District and local levels, the Bloc members each, to some degree, had election pacts to not run candidates against the others or at least non-aggression/no-negative advertising/cease-fire pacts in districts where their candidates were both contesting an office.

Notes:
* - The inclusion of cell-phone and online participation in opinion surveys has been found to be statistically uneven and should be viewed as less accurate than traditional methods (YCOR, "Effect of New Methodologies In Opinion Research," 2019).
** - The Yisraeli College of Opinion Researchers notes that polls and surveys with an undecided tally of less than <5% beyond the last two days before an election are less accurate, statistically, than polls with undecided voters comprising ≥5%.
