Poll: Hamas Not So Popular

Angus Reid has the details:

Support for the Fatah movement more than doubles public backing for its opponent party Hamas in the Palestinian territories, according to a poll by the Jerusalem Media & Communication Center. 40 per cent of respondents would vote for Fatah in the next election to the Palestinian Legislative Council, while 18.7 per cent would back Hamas.

Another 12.4 per cent of respondents would vote for another party. Almost one quarter of respondents say that they would not vote.
