Taiwan's vice-presidential hopefuls are working to boost their own party's frontman by wooing young voters, a group dubbed by some as "the wild card" of January's elections. Correction: This story incorrectly states that over 70% of votes in Taiwan’s 2020 election were from people under the age of 40. The Central Election Commission reports that voter turnout in 2020 among those under 40 years old exceeded 70%.
