Chen, Lu, DPP (Green) 6470517

Lien, Soong, KMT/PFP (Blue) 6443019

Only one more county (Taoyuan in northern Taiwan) left uncounted.

DPP won Taichung County for the first time in any national election - the central Taiwan counties (includign Taichung) were seen as the pivotal battelground between the generally Blue north and the generally green south.

The Blue HQ is quiet, sensing probable defeat.

Well, the latest news has BLue winning the last county, Taoyuan county, by 10,000 votes. Not quite enough to make up the previous 27,000 vote difference.

Looks like 50.1 % Green, 49.9 % Blue, Green won by less than 17,000 votes.

Looks like Chen is pulling away a little bit. Looks like my gut feeling that Chen would win wasn't wrong.

CTV
Chen 5,070,581
Lien 4,901,915

Now about 170,000 difference.

Referendums
O 3,723,375
X 333,923

O 3,585,383
X 323,368

Again. Have no idea what O and X mean. So, while I have the numbers, I have no idea if they are passing of failing. One way or the other, it appears to be a blowout with the Referendums.
