JERUSALEM — A final count of ballots on Thursday gave Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s Likud party an additional seat in Parliament, making it the largest faction and punctuating the Israeli leader’s victory.

The results released by Israel’s central election commission showed Likud capturing a total of 36 seats in the 120-seat Parliament, compared to 35 seats for its main rival, the centrist Blue and White party. An earlier count had the two parties deadlocked.

Altogether, Likud and its traditional Jewish ultra-Orthodox and nationalist allies command a 65-55 majority, putting Mr. Netanyahu in position to head the next coalition government. On Wednesday, Blue and White’s leaders conceded defeat.

The final count showed another nationalist faction, the New Right party of Education Minister Naftali Bennett and Justice Minister Ayelet Shaked, falling just short of the 3.25 percent of the vote needed to get into Parliament.
