TAIPEI (TVBS News) — A citizens' preference poll on Taiwan's government composition, conducted by the Taiwan Public Opinion Foundation (TPOF), showed that 47.3% of respondents were generally pleased with the outcome of the elections, which saw the Democratic Progressive Party's (DPP) candidate win the presidency but fail to secure a majority in the legislature.
The poll results, announced by TPOF Tuesday (Jan. 23), displayed a mixed outlook, with 15.3% being very pleased, 32% somewhat pleased, 23.4% expressing slight displeasure, and 9.1% not pleased. A further 17.8% were neutral, with 2.4% unsure or refusing to answer.
On the question of forming a coalition government in the event of no single party gaining a majority, nearly 60% of respondents agreed with this approach.
The poll results showed that 17.5% strongly agree, 41.9% somewhat agree, 15.6% slightly disagree, and 6% strongly oppose the idea. About 12.8% held no opinion, while 6.2% were uncertain or withheld their responses.
The survey was conducted over three days, Jan. 15-17, by Focus Survey Research, commissioned by TPOF. It used a dual-frame random sampling design, with 70% landline and 30% mobile calls, targeting Taiwanese residents aged 20 and above. The margin of error is 2.98 percentage points with a 95% level of confidence.
