Activists from the "Amcha Israel" movement expressed disappointment and anger towards the Likud party following preliminary election results, which indicated the movement failed to cross the electoral threshold. "The strategic mistake by Netanyahu in vote absorption cost the right-wing bloc many valuable mandates," stated one disappointed activist. Despite facing a campaign against them, "Amcha Israel" garnered over 100,000 votes, which a party member described as a solid base from which they intend to continue.
Initial optimism within the movement on election day, with some senior members believing they would be the "surprise of the elections," waned as vote percentages rose. However, despite the setback, activists are determined to remain a political force, with one stating, "'Amcha Israel' will stay on the map."
