Updated Interactive Israel Election Map (1992-2022)

A new map for the Israeli elections from 1992 to 2022.
Updated Interactive Israel Election Map (1992-2022)

Hello everyone,

I've been working on a new map for the Israeli elections - I'd love to hear your thoughts. You can see it in full screen here.

Charts: Interactive Data Exploration

One of this updated project's most important new features is the charts. Adding hover state functionality for data points allows you to explore how individual polling stations voted.

Addition of the 25th Knesset: A Closer Look

Including the 25th Knesset election data significantly expands the project's scope. This allows you to access detailed party classifications and results, presenting the most recent election dynamics.

Classifications

Bloc

Description

Left

Advocates for redistribution, social liberalism, and more peaceful on security

Right

Advocates for free markets, social conservatism, and more hawkish on security

Secular Centre

Parties that do not identify with Orthodox tradition and do not identify as Left Wing or Right Wing

Arab-Israeli

Advocates for Arab-Israelis - this covers a broad section of identities and beliefs

Orthodox

Advocates for Orthodox Jewish people

Sectoral

Advocates for a particular interest (region, peoples, issue)

Micro

Parties that get under 1% of the vote

And these are all the classifications for all parties since 1992:

Future Developments and Collaborations

Looking ahead, my aim is to provide updates for upcoming election data. Plans for future developments also include integrating more advanced analytical tools and expanding the dataset to include broader socio-political variables. In addition, I'd aim to find the data for the polling stations for the missing elections.

Conclusion

This update to the Israel Election Data Project marks a significant milestone in providing an in-depth, interactive, and accessible analysis of Israeli elections. The addition of the 2022 election results, along with the technical and visual enhancements, have significantly improved this project.
