The leader of the Religious Zionist Party Bezalel Smotrich commented on the exit polls, and wrote on his Twitter: "The Religious Zionist Party is making history with this accomplishment that is the most significant of a national religious party since the establishment of the state - an accomplishment that piles on what seems to be a victory of the nationalist bloc.
"Now we wait patiently for the results so that we can securely establish a nationalist right-wing, Jewish, and Zionist government."
