Due to the changes in international politics in recent years, especially the disputes between China and the United States in diplomatic wrestling, focusing on the Taiwan Strait and the Asia -Pacific region. The Taiwan elections on January 13 have naturally become the focus of international attention. The result may affect China and the United States.The development of diplomatic relations in the next step.

Taiwan is known as the Chinese Lord Lighthouse, and has successfully experienced several elections and political party rotation experience. The performance of democracy should be more and more mature and gain the trust of most people.However, the situation does not seem to be the case, especially since the campaign began in December last year, all kinds of "pseudo -democracy" or cases of destruction of democracy occurred and occurred.The advertised democracy is doubtful.

In the past countless election experience in Taiwan, the polls before the election have been commonplace. It is regarded as a rational representation of a democratic society.In addition to secret voting, there is another opportunity to express free choice, without fear of being dealt with.Therefore, general scholars believe that the accuracy of polls and the final invoicing result can be used as an indicator that reflects the degree of opening up of democratic society.

The Taiwan election, due to the formation of triangular warfare, and it is said that the three parties are evenly matched, so it is possible to form the so -called "abandoning insurance".At this time, the media's "wind direction" became a key force, especially the so -called poll results became a weapon, which can affect the voting intention of voters.In the case of three parties, the voting mentality of ordinary people will consider: when people who think they support may not be elected, they are unwilling to vote for themselves.", This also forms abandoned insurance.Therefore, this is why some people think that the election is "choosing one of the rotten apples less badly", and even "hatred or hate value is decided to vote" (commonly known as "gambling ticket").This is why democratic elections are mostly to dig scars or splashes of feces, but not many people care about the policy claims.

While the media joined the report on polls, few people will carefully investigate the basis (science and method) behind these poll results. Therefore, the so -called objective is basically impossible to judge.If it is justified, it is not possible to have a "false poll", because it has essentially constitutes an interventional operation operation, with polls to bring wind direction, left and right voters' voting intentions.The distortion of this election this time is related to the announcement of the polls of a company in the sky. It cannot vote for voters calmly according to their own intentions.Make people who support this group transfer the ticket because they are afraid (hate).

Furthermore, the wired or wireless media in Taiwan rarely have no political bias. From the hosts on various radio programs, the settings of the guests, the settings of the discussion, etc., you can clearly see the position behind the position.Therefore, some say that this is "the media before the selection of the media", and the polls can hide the tendency to form the surface objective.Therefore, citizens may change to the election activities of government agencies, such as public political opinions, balanced reports of public television, etc., and hopes to be treated reasonably and fairly.

However, the so -called "public" is actually the advantage of the ruling party to indirectly use some inferior operation methods under the advantage of possessing administrative resources, resulting in favoritism or administrative injustice.Recently, the Central Election Commission hosted the first political conference, but it mainly allowed the media to broadcast the media of some pro -government. On the surface, candidates for each group can publicly express their opinions. In fact, when the live broadcast was on the spot, it was actually the opponent of the ruling party.When publishing political opinions, the sound of advertising words has been stamped; even worse, when a candidate speaks, it is also inserted into criticizing the party's publicity advertisement.

"Smooming" is deprived of the freedom of election

This kind of "silence" is obviously illegal, but the election committee has shirk off the broadcast unit, and the broadcast unit is said to be a systematic problem.During the live broadcast of "systemic problems", the object was two candidates outside the ruling party. It was unexpected or deliberately involved, and it had caused injustice to representatives in the wild camp.The Election Commission not only did not express correction, but the media industry did not apologize publicly. The phenomenon of unfair election occurred in the "public" activity and had caused fundamental harm to the election.This will launch the possibility of various conflicts after the selection.

The premise of

The premise of democratic elections is the right to disclose information, voters know the right, and make judgments based on what he hear or see.In other words, "muffler" is deprived of the freedom in democratic elections, because the information is blocked and the election rules are favored or injustice, no matter what the result is, it is no longer a fair and clean election.Prior to this, a symposium on the "private" of the National Teachers' Union Federation invited three candidates to attend the expression of educational policies and concepts. Surprisingly, only one candidate was invited, and public television stations were broadcast on this.In the news content, I did not mention the relevant content published by the candidate at all, and even said that the three candidates were absent, but the only candidate was to communicate with the representatives of the Teacher Association through the video of the video, and the news of the public TV cleverly cleverly reported the news of the news.Report.

The premise of

Democratic society is freedom. Freedom refers not only to freedom election, because the reason why freedom choice is that is based on the openness, transparency, and fairness of information.When the information was operated by the media, different political opinions have not been reported or equal, this has obviously left huge questions for the results of the election.What is worrying is that the elected Taiwan will laid social conflicts and contradictions for the unfair or deliberate operation of the election.
