Israelis go to the polls on Tuesday to choose a new government.
It has come down to a race between Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Benny Gantz, a former military chief of staff.
Mr Netanyahu has faced accusations that he fostered racism in the campaign, after he oversaw the creation of an electoral alliance involving a party that calls for the expulsion of most Arabs from Israel.
