PoliticsIsrael's president vows to name government-forming candidate on Sunday

Isaac Herzog said he would choose a candidate on Sunday to try to form a government after talks showed 67 lawmakers backing Gadi Eisenkot and 46 backing Benjamin Netanyahu. Herzog said mutual vetoes within and between blocs left it unclear who had the best chance. Netanyahu has questioned the election results over a vote-tampering investigation, while Israel's Central Election Committee said the election's integrity was intact.
