JERUSALEM (AP) - Benjamin Netanyahu swept the race to lead Israel's hardline Likud Party, according to interim results reported Tuesday, boosting his ambitions to reclaim the country's premiership.

Netanyahu, crowned in recent polls as the front-runner for Israel's top job, faced off against far-right West Bank settler Moshe Feiglin, who would bar Arabs from Israel's parliament and favors their emigration. A partial tally gave Netanyahu 73 percent of the vote to Feiglin's 22 percent, party executive director Gad Arieli said. World Likud Party Chairman Danny Danon trailed with 4 percent.
