An election result is not a single-issue poll and the current government supports the status quo anyway (just being fundamentally more open to dialogue). A clear majority of the opulation supports de-facto independence (the current status) or even formal independence [0].

"It's only a democracy if the results suits our interests"

You are not being objective, a poll is not a vote

In a vote, the registered population gets to vote using official ID

In a poll, only 'god' knows who the respondents are

  • But no big party supports reunification with the current Chinese government, at best they have it as a long term goal. The election results do not show what you're claiming.

  • Even when presented with facts and argumentation, people still downvote, i guess there is no turning back

    No blood on my hands!
