Political Group Survey: the AFA survey question on BDS against Israel
Source: AFA Survey
The AFA inferred whether candidates agree or disagree with the statement, 'I support BDS (boycott, divestment, and sanction) against Israel if they refuse to allow the creation of a Palestinian state'?
Self-description: (American Family Association helps produce iVoterGuides): "Grounded in God; rooted in research"; they "thoroughly investigate candidates"; when they cannot "evaluate with confidence, they receive an 'Insufficient' rating" (& we exclude)
Also see the Christian Coalition survey question on support of Israel as a related survey question; the PVS survey question on military intervention from a similar survey question; and the 2018 CC survey question on supporting Israel.
