Part 2/6:
This election cycle is characterized by an unprecedented grassroots movement, with thousands of petitions fueling a nationwide effort to unseat more than 30 lawmakers through recall votes. Over twenty of these legislators are awaiting their electoral fate today, making it a decisive battle that could reshape Taiwan’s legislative majority.
The recall campaign reflects deep public discontent with the opposition, which is accused of pandering to Beijing and compromising Taiwan’s sovereignty. Activists have rallied extensively, staging mass protests and organizing petition drives as part of a concerted effort to challenge lawmakers believed to favor rapprochement with China.
