According to Taiwan media reports, the layout of various political parties in Taiwan is gradually becoming clear at the end of the year in the county mayor election. The Kuomintang has nominated "Legislator" Jiang Wanan to run for mayor of Taipei. The party intends to launch Huang Shanshan, the deputy mayor of Taipei City, and the outside world is concerned that Huang Shanshan will register for the election with no party membership, People's Party membership or People First Party membership. It is reported that internal polls of the People's Party show that Huang Shanshan's support for the People's Party membership is higher than that of no party membership, so Huang Shanshan does not reject joining the People's Party for the election.
It is reported that there are voices in the People's Party that hope that Huang Shanshan can run for election with People's Party membership, but some people think that running without party membership can attract more votes.
Cai Biru, the convener of the People's Party's election campaign group, pointed out that there are indeed two different voices within the party. Therefore, a poll was conducted within the party and it was found that Huang Shanshan's support was 2% higher if the People's Party membership was 2% higher than that of those without membership. The results are within the margin of error, showing that there is little difference between Huang Shanshan's election of Taipei mayor with no party membership or People's Party membership.
Cai Biru said that Taipei City is a county and city governed by the People's Party, and Huang Shanshan can make her own decisions. She doesn't have to be a member of the People's Party to run for election. She has also discussed with Huang Shanshan recently, and Huang Shanshan told her that if the People's Party Central Committee invites her to join the party It will not be excluded, but there will be no option to run with FFP membership.
The People's Party currently only has the mayors of Taipei City and Taoyuan to be roughly determined. Gao Hong was elected to Hsinchu City, but has not yet completed the nomination work.
Cai Biru said that the local epidemic situation is severe, and epidemic prevention is the priority at present. The nomination of county mayors is expected to start consultation related operations in June. Counties and cities north of Hsinchu , except New Taipei City , will launch candidates.
In addition, there has been a lot of discussion on the issue of "blue and white integration" between the Kuomintang and the People's Party. Taiwan Donghua University Professor Shi Zhengfeng recently said bluntly that the DPP is now the "ruling party", and it is difficult for Taipei City to "blue and white". As long as the DPP pushes powerful candidates, they should all go. Shi Zhengfeng also analyzed the vote structure of the Taipei mayoral election. He bluntly stated that the DPP's basic stock in Taipei City used to be about 35%. If administrative resources, tie-ups, etc. are added, there should be a chance. Eager to try. (Editor: Fang Yanyan)
