BEIJING — Americans aren’t the only ones disillusioned by the vitriolic presidential race this year.

According to a recent Pew Research Center poll, the number of Chinese who said they admire American-style democracy declined by 64% since the beginning of the 2012 campaign season, with the sharpest drop during the Republican primaries.
