Regarding legal reform: 64% of the public gave the government a negative score for its handling of the area, 13% were neutral, and 23% gave a positive score.
On the other hand, most coalition voters actually gave the government a positive score on the issue: 44% from Likud voters, 64% from Religious Zionism and Otzma Yehudit, and 71% from Shas – perhaps due to the process of dialogue in the President's Office, or because things were finally done gradually and with more explanation.
