The DPP had been expected to decide the rules of its presidential primary and when a winner would be announced yesterday, but a meeting of its Central Executive Committee fizzled out after the chairman called a recess. Supporters of President Tsai Ing-wen blame DPP Chairman Cho Jung-tai for rigging the meeting in favor of challenger Lai Ching-te.
