Purpose: This article addresses Taiwanese public opinion on same-sex marriage, connecting it to the 2020 general election. Design/methodology/approach: Original survey data are combined with analysis of the existing literature and 2020 election results. Findings: Original survey data find that nearly one in five respondents have changed their views on same-sex marriage since its legalization, with most of those who have changed their views more opposed to legalization than before. However, this shift and its related support for the Kuomintang (KMT) do not appear to have influenced election results. Social implications: The results suggest that positions on same-sex marriage remain somewhat in flux, while the success of the pro-legalization Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) may lead to additional LGBT rights. Originality/value: This combines original survey data with election results to analyze the effects of same-sex marriage legalization on the election outcome. |
