Taiwan will conduct its largest recall vote with 24 lawmakers from the Kuomintang (KMT) on the ballot. Civic groups initiated the recall, alleging the KMT is too close to Beijing. The Mainland Affairs Council accused the Chinese Communist Party of interfering in Taiwan's democracy. To succeed, more votes must support the recall than oppose it, with a minimum turnout of 25%. Political tensions have escalated as the KMT criticizes the recalls, asserting they undermine democracy while China increases military pressure against Taiwan.
The recall campaign was initiated by civic groups who accuse the KMT lawmakers of being too close to Beijing, which views Taiwan as its own territory.
For the recall to succeed, the number of votes in favor must outnumber the number of votes against, and turnout must exceed 25% of registered voters in the constituency.
Taiwan's Mainland Affairs Council stated that the Chinese Communist Party was attempting to interfere with Taiwan's democratic process.
The KMT denies being pro-Beijing and claims that the recalls are a "malicious" attack on democracy.
