@yaenntz promising and at the same time challenging due to the strong differences in political culture and social demographics. For instance at the begining, I can only speak for my self... it was difficult to realize the changes, big amounts of new people with different expectations, etc. For people in Meretz I think it was similar, and a feeling that they project didn't work anymore (but I talked only with a few meretzniks).Anyway the new party starts with a basis of 70.000 people, 50.000 coming from Labor and 18.000 from Meretz, what is not bad for a small country. And at least in the traditional basis of Labor, people from kibbutz, trade unions, ranks in the army... that created expectations and a new motivation.
