Voting for the 2020 Taiwan election has ended. The Central Election Commission previously announced that the number of electors (that is, the number of eligible voters) in this election was about 19.31 million.

The Taiwan media "China Times" previously estimated that the turnout rate would be much higher than the 66% in the previous session. If the turnout rate in the 2012 presidential election was 74%, nearly 14.3 million people would vote in Taiwan. More than half of the votes cast were around 7 million.

According to reports, the turnout rate for the 1996 presidential election in Taiwan was 76%. In 2000, the political party turned for the first time. The turnout rate rose to a record high of 82%, and in 2004 it dropped to 80%. In 2008 and 2012, they continued to fall, 76% and 74% respectively. In 2016, they fell below 70% for the first time with only 66% remaining. The Kuomintang was defeated by a large number of disappointed "rejectionists".

It is reported that this year's general election has intense blue-green competition, coupled with the victory of the Kuomintang in the "Nine-in-One Election" in November 2018, and the DPP has hyped "Dried Mango" (a sense of demise), which is expected to drive the overall turnout. The report stated that excluding the ultra-low turnout rate in 2016, it was estimated to be 74% lower than in previous years. The total number of voters was 19.3 million, and 14.28 million votes could be cast across Taiwan, with a majority of 7.14 million. As three groups of men and women entered the competition this year, 7 million votes should be eligible for election. But if the turnout rate is higher, the threshold for election will also rise.

According to the information released on the 7th of the Election Commission, the number of electors of the President and Vice President this time was 19,311,105. The number of electors in 6 municipalities including Taipei, New Taipei City, Taoyuan City, Taichung City, Tainan City, and Kaohsiung City reached 13.3376945 , Accounting for 69.27% ​​of the total number of voters.

Among them, the number of electors in New Taipei City was 3.321,459, followed by the number of electors in Kaohsiung at 2.29595558. In addition, the number of voters in Taipei and Taichung exceeded 2 million, with 2.167264 and 2.251,064 respectively. There were also more than one million voters in Taoyuan City and Tainan City, with 1.78 million 755 and 1.558 845 respectively.

According to the Taiwan Ministry of the Interior, in order to have voting rights, according to regulations, voters must be at least 20 years old and declared unguarded, presidential elections must continue to live in Taiwan for more than 6 months, and legislative elections must continue in the electoral district. Only if you live more than 4 months are you eligible to vote. On January 11, 2020, Taiwan citizens with voting rights are required to bring their ID cards, seals and voting notices to the polls.
