Well, Hamas was voted strongest party in 2006 or 2008 (can't remember exactly) with ~45% votes.
When more than half of the population of the Gaza strip are children and the elderly, any voting is just not legitimate. It's like saying China runs fair elections.
That approval rating has only gone up as the violence against them has ramped up. I think it's in the 60s now.
Most likely yeah. But I couldn't find any newer approval ratings.
