Within the pool of voters for the Democrats party, Einav Zangauker is a much broader consensus than other worthy candidates who entered the list.

Yair Golan, chairman of the Democrats, has already proven that he knows how to lead fighters in battle. Now, he needs to prove that he knows how to lead a camp.
