Electoral system

Further information: Elections in Israel

The 120 seats in the Knesset are elected by proportional representation in a single nationwide constituency. The electoral threshold for the election is 3.25%. In almost all cases, this is equivalent to a minimum party size of four seats, but on rare occasions a party can end up with three.[2]
