Roughly half of Jamaicans are of the view that there is no major difference between the island's two main political parties.
That's according to the latest Don Anderson political poll.
Fifty-two per cent of the respondents agree that there is no difference between the two main political parties and another 37 per cent disagreed, noting that there are differences.
Twelve per cent of respondents said they either don't know or they aren't sure.
For those who think there is a difference, they were asked what they used to draw that conclusion.
Twenty-six per cent said the Jamaica Labour Party (JLP) is for the rich and the People's National Party (PNP) for the poor.
Ten per cent said the JLP is more productive and efficient, while another 10 per cent indicated that they have different policies and mandates.
A further nine per cent of respondents said the JLP is more organised.
Eight per cent said one party is more for the people and the other has a better track record.
Six per cent said there is a different leadership style, another six per cent said money is in circulation when the PNP is in power and a urther six per cent said one party is more corrupt than the other.
Four per cent of respondents say the PNP creates more job opportunities.
The field work was conducted between November 24 and December 7.
It has a margin of error of plus or minus three per cent.
