War in Taiwan '24: Election (General)

Taiwan's election is between a Lie, a Cur, & a Ho.

I'm actually hoping Ke Wen-je does well, just to shake up the duopoly. He gets attacked for his China position, but it seems not too bad - he's vowed to continue Tsai Ing-wen's autonomy policy but to try & take some heat out of the relationship with China. Sounds sensible enough.

I noticed Ma Ing-jiu has weighed in saying Taiwan needs to "trust Xi Jin-ping" - but even the KMT candidate has distanced himself from that. The days of anyone talking up reunification appear to be dead & buried.
