Legislative elections are set to be held in Taiwan by 2028 to renew all 113 seats to the Legislative Yuan.
Background
2024 legislative election
The 2024 Taiwanese legislative election saw the incumbent Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) lose the majority they had held since 2016. Despite receiving the most votes, both in the constituency and list votes, the DPP fell to second place with 51 seats, 1 seat behind the Kuomintang (KMT), who received 52 seats. The Taiwan People's Party (TPP), a centre-left party describing itself as a third force between the pan-green camp and pan-blue camp, consolidated the third party vote, increasing its seat share to 8, and placing it in a kingmaker position, meaning its support is crucial in the midst of the hung parliament scenario currently faced, although it has aligned itself with the Kuomintang (KMT), under the KMT–TPP coalition.[1]
Electoral system
The 113 seats of the Legislative Yuan are elected through parallel voting:[2]
- 73 seats are elected through First-past-the-post voting in single member constituencies,
- 6 seats are reserved for taiwanese aboriginals elected through single non-transferable vote in two 3-member constituencies, Lowland and Highland,
- 34 seats are elected through party-list proportional representation in a single nationwide constituency with a 5% electoral threshold, and 50% of list seats won must be women.
Taiwan's Central Election Commission uses an active household registration system, therefore no citizen has to actively register. Electronic voting is not implemented in Taiwanese elections, nor is absentee voting.[3]
