Israel's First Election Signals Mapai Lead and Broad Coalition
Israel's first election results show Premier David Ben-Gurion's Mapai party leading with about 35 percent at mid count. The race for second place features Napal and a five-party bloc favoring religious law. Militant right wing and Communist groups lag among 21 parties vying for 120 assembly seats to form a new government and draft a constitution. Ben-Gurion aims for a cautious foreign policy within UN boundaries and seeks world recognition without entangling alliances. Mapam may join the new regime, already holding two cabinet seats.
