A landslide in Taiwan

Tsai Ing-wen was re-elected President of Taiwan with 57% of the vote. The KMT candidate got just 39%.

The heavy handed tactics by China in Hong Kong were no doubt a big influence in this election. Turnout was 9% higher than in 2016.

So the results of China trying to heavy Taiwan was to get the pro-independence President easily re-elected.

Hopefully they’ll learn their tactics are counter-productive. Well outside NZ universities anyway.
