This study seeks to examine the attitudes of the Arab public in Israel regarding participation in the elections to the 20th Knesset: voting intentions, reasons for voting or for refraining from voting, and scenarios that could encourage turnout. The study forms part of a broad-based action plan by the Abraham Fund Initiatives to encourage political participation among Arab citizens in Israel, and to raise awareness within the Jewish sector – most specifically within the political milieu – regarding the critical importance of this participation. These activities are entirely non-partisan and are confined to encouraging participation per se.
