Kadima Wins?

I suppose they got the most votes of any party. (At least as of the present reports.) They don't have enough of a majority to form the government though.

Enshrining Ariel Sharon's legacy, Israeli voters today gave the largest number of parliamentary seats to the centrist party the stricken prime minister founded last year, setting Israel on a course toward relinquishing dozens of settlements in the West Bank. The Kadima Party, led by acting Prime Minister Ehud Olmert since Sharon's debilitating stroke 2½ months ago, won between 29 and 32 seats in the 120-member Knesset, or parliament, according to exit polls -— fewer than forecast, but still placing it solidly in first place.

It will be interesting to see the make up of the new government. Hopefully they'll be able to continue the motion that Sharon started. With Hamas in majority in Palestine, I think the Sharon policy is the only one that appears to have any legitimacy.
