     President Tsai was re-elected by a wide margin. In her victory speech, she said that the deeper meaning of this election's result is that whenever Taiwan's sovereignty and democracy are loudly threatened, the people of Taiwan will cry out with a louder voice in the cause of Taiwan's perseverance. It is hoped that the regime in Beijing can understand that democratic Taiwan and the democratically elected government will not concede to threats and intimidation, and that mutual respect and positive interaction in Cross-Strait relations is what's in the best interests and hopes of the peoples on both sides. The results of this election have made that answer crystal clear.
