One of the most exciting things for me at Taiwan's elections is to witness the vote counting where votes are counted transparently in front of voters. Police just announced that polls have closed and counting has started. Hou Yu-ih has an early lead at the voting center I'm at. pic.twitter.com/LsR6SWgh7D

To all voters waking up on #Taiwan this morning & getting ready to exercise your democratic rights, enjoy it. Vote for who you believe is the best candidate for your country & encourage others to do the same. And remember, voting is a privilege not enjoyed in the PRC. Cherish it!
