#Opinion by Choy Chi-keung 蔡子強|"I am quite sure that the next election will see a much lower voter turnout. This will reflect how the new electoral system will be perceived by the public after it embodies Beijing’s political will."

"我相當肯定,下屆選舉的投票率將大跌,到時也可反映這個新選舉制度,在體現了北京的政治意志後,在公眾心目中的接受度如何了。"

This year #Taiwan was named a “StarPerformer” in its score and global ranking in The Economist Intelligence Unit’s Democracy Index, moving up 20 places from 31st to 11th, and being upgraded to “#FullDemocracy.” Despite the bad year it’s been for #democracy around the world, Taiwan is proud to be on the front-lines of the push for progress and we’ll continue to work with like-minded partners to ensure the voices of all peoples are heard!
“The star performer, measured by the change in both its score and rank, was Taiwan, which was upgraded to a 'full democracy' after rising 20 places in the global ranking from 31st to 11th. Taiwan went to the polls in January 2020, and a strong voter turnout, including among young people, demonstrated the resilience of its democracy.”

voter turnout 在 黃耀明 Anthony Wong Facebook 的最讚貼文

The inauguration of @JoeBiden featured a slew of high-profile performers, but for many it was @AmandascGorman, the youngest inaugural poet in US history, who truly wowed the crowd with this reading of her poem, The Hill We Climb.
Gorman, who was named the first-ever national youth poet laureate in 2017, gave a powerful, five-minute performance after Biden was sworn in. She recited a poem she had written, in part, on the day of the US Capitol riots on 6 January.
It was a tour-de-force from Gorman as she called for Americans to “leave behind a country better than the one we were left”.
“We’ve seen a force that would shatter our nation rather than share it,” Gorman read. “Would destroy our country if it meant delaying democracy. And this effort very nearly succeeded. But while democracy can be periodically delayed, it can never be permanently defeated.”
The performance won instant plaudits, including from @MichelleObama, @Oprah Winfrey, @AyannaPressley, Martin Luther King Jr's daughter @berniceaking, and @StaceyAbrams, the former Democratic candidate for Georgia governor who has been credited with boosting voter turnout in the state, leading to a rare Democratic win.
“Amanda Gorman’s message serves as an inspiration to us all,” Abrams tweeted.
