At ten o'clock, about 30 Meretz activists who arrived at the party headquarters shouted with joy that Meretz passed the threshold, but as soon as they turned to see the rest of the results, they were seen grabbing their heads when they realized that the change government was on its way home.

Slowly the members of the list began to arrive who looked a little shocked when Mossi Raz called it a sad day for the country.
"The strengthening of the extreme right is not what we wanted. Although we were anxious not to pass, but I expected a better result than 4-5 mandates... I hope it will improve, but we know what it is like.
I think it's very sad that the extreme right is the third largest party, I think in the world they look.
Of course, the public has the right to decide, but this is an image damage to the country.
The radiation of the State of Israel decreased a lot today.
Ben Gabir played on people's fears and there are justified fears, he is smart, he played on them beautifully, it is very sad.
It's a sad day for the State of Israel.'

Some of the activists asked to wait a little and mentioned that these were samples and not the real results, but Shaul, a veteran activist in Meretz looked at the results of the sample and did not believe it, "How could it be that everyone went with Ben Gabir.
He is an excellent actor, played on the fears of the citizens, we have nothing to look for here.
What is going to happen in the country from now on is more frightening.'
