Lapid's low: Yesh Atid on its way to the smallest representation in its history

Yair Lapid is expected to enter the 26th Knesset with only three or four additional representatives from Yesh Atid, as part of the Together list. This represents a reduction of about 79% to 83% compared to the 24 seats in 2022, and the biggest low in the party's history.

Yesh Atid chairman Yair Lapid is expected to enter the 26th Knesset with only three or four additional representatives from his party, as part of the Together list headed by Naftali Bennett. This represents a reduction of about 79% to 83% compared to Yesh Atid's achievement in the previous elections, when it won 24 seats. Even in the party's previous low, in 2015, it won 11 seats – more than double the number of representatives now expected. Alongside Lapid, Merav Ben Ari, Naama Tibon, and Merav Cohen are expected to enter, while Ram Ben Barak's entry depends on the final results. The article notes a wave of resignations by veterans and young members who realized they would not enter the Knesset.
