Not even mentioned in the Top 20 overall policy priorities for voters:

Barely cracking the Top 15 for overall foreign policy priorities for voters:

And even though support for a cease fire has increased over the past few years, particularly with Democrats, it isn’t an issue that will change your vote. There is probably close to zero undecided voters waiting to decided who to vote for based on what a candidate will or won’t do with the Hamas/Israel issue.

I’m not saying it’s a top 5, vote swaying issue, or that anyone that takes issue with the Democrats being too pro-Israel are going to vote Republican.
But saying most Americans don’t have foreign policy as a vote-deciding issue is a hell of a lot more accurate and valid than saying most Americans blindly support Israel “becuz 9/11 & Team America hur dur!”
