Contributing sentiments towards policy:

44% : BAGHDAD, Oct 8 (Reuters) - Soldiers, prisoners and displaced people voted in special early polls in Iraq on Friday as the country prepared for a Sunday general election where turnout will show how much faith voters have left in a still young democratic system.
41% : Iraq is safer than it has been for years and violent sectarianism is less of a feature than ever since Iraq vanquished Islamic State in 2017 with the help of an international military coalition and Iran.
32% : Iraqi officials blame armed groups with links to Iran for the killings, a charge those groups deny.
