Likud's election headquarters in Tel Aviv is filling up fast with excited supporters, who see this as an absolute victory for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Absolute excitement. A sense of relief, but also excitement that we ran a campaign that was positive, exciting, and that people responded. It’s a tremendous turnout. Excitement everywhere and it’s reflected over here as well,” Elie Pieprz, a Likud voter, told CNN.

Another Likud supporter, Hila Kiron, said that the mood felt drastically different to the last two elections.

It is a different feeling. I saw the crowd ... it's gonna be thousands of people. The feeling is I cant even describe it; it’s like we won. It seems like the media in Israel, and actually everyone wanted to see Bibi Netanyahu falling. It didn’t happen, it won’t happen," Kiron said.
