Netanyahu made a last-minute campaign pitch in Jerusalem on Tuesday, making an impromptu speech urging complacent right-wing voters to go and vote.
Netanyahu, who wants to win a fifth term in office after already becoming the longest-serving prime minister to date, said that according to the turnout figures he had, large population centers that traditionally vote for left-wing parties have seen high turnout but added that it was not too late to fight back.

He then added that the Likud could be ousted from power for the first time in 10 years if Blue and White, an alliance of center-left parties, got more seats than Likud.
"Blue and White leader Benny Gantz said that he would implement the policies of Labor and Meretz," Netanyahu warned while speaking through a bullhorn. He then asked rhetorically, "Do you want that?" to which the supporters cried out, "No!"
"Do you want to keep Israel safe? Then get out and vote, I want you to take your friends, your fellow shoppers in the market, your neighbors, vote Likud, Likud, Likud," he said with a hoarse voice. "Tel Aviv turnout is skyrocketing; do you want [Blue and White co-leader] Yair Lapid as prime minister?"
Earlier on Tuesday, the Likud warned that Arab parties might receive as much as 15 seats, thus helping the Left unseat him. The party convened an emergency meeting.
