For an accurate sense of the views of Palestinians, you may turn to WINEP and Fox News

"“Nobody can forgive Hamas for what they’re doing," the journalist said. "No one can forgive Hamas for butchering Palestinians to get power. Most Gazans hate Hamas with a passion."" The funny part is that the article also relies on a "reliable poll" of Palestinians conducted--before the war, mind you--by none other than WINEP.   To this rubbish, Hamas can easily say: OK, let us hold elections.  It is US and Abbas who don't want elections.  (thanks Michele)
