Poll shows majority support for pullout

By Yossi Verter, Haaretz Correspondent
Prime Minister Ariel Sharon's "disengagement government," enjoys the support of the majority of voters, according to a poll carried out on behalf of Haaretz by Dialogue on Wednesday.

The poll, conducted under the supervision of Professor Camile Fuchs, shows that the majority of the population supports the new government and the disengagement plan, particularly the voters from the left and the center.

However, the poll also showed that while 38 percent of the public supports implementation of the disengagement plan, 38 percent also back a referendum on the issue.

Responding to this data, a spokesman from the Prime Minister's Office said that Sharon remained adamantly opposed to a referendum, which he believes will only further the division among the people and lead to violence.

than there is of "you".

Liberal Yanks got a lesson in demographics in 2000 and 2004; no matter how noble the cause may seem, the voters (the essence of a democracy) may feel otherwise. Democrats may espouse miniature families, but those of the larger broods will always out-vote them.

It is one of the few silver linings that comes with a larger brood.
