According to a recent Gallup poll, 49% of Democrats sympathize more with Palestinian Arabs than with Israelis for the first time since 2001, although a majority of Democrats still have a favorable view of Israel, reports Arutz-7. Meanwhile, 78% of Republicans sympathize more with Israelis, with independents at 49%. The poll also found that Israel's positive margin has progressively declined in recent years, and sympathy for Palestinians tends to be higher among younger voters. Respondents who have a favorable view of Israel totalled 68%, with 82% for Republicans and 56% for Democrats.
