Kuomintang Chairman Ke Wenzhe recently stated that in response to the "nine-in-one" election in 2026, the "n+1" plan will be launched, and one more person will be nominated for each county and city council election. However, KMT spokesperson Ling Tao said "not even n" No". Ke Wenzhe said frankly that he does not even have n at the moment, very few, but he has the spirit of grass.
Ko Wenzhe attended the housewarming event of Taipei City Councilor Chen Youcheng's service office of the People's Party today (10th) and accepted joint interviews with the media. When asked about the planning issue for the 2026 election, he said that it is still in the preparation stage. The first step is to find better talents and establish a talent pool, and the election will not be discussed until 2026.
As for Ling Tao’s recent rant, the People’s Party’s current problem is not “+1”, but that it doesn’t even have “n”. It must first create “n” before it can have the subsequent “+1”. In this regard, Ke Wenzhe said with a smile that the People's Party currently has only 15 members in Taiwan, "not even n, but we have the spirit of grass."
Representative Huang Shanshan of the People's Party, who attended the same event, said in an interview that there are 9 seats in total for Taipei Ganghu District councilors. She has been elected here for 24 years. The competition between blue and green is fierce, but there is still a certain space for the middle vote. She was elected in the past In terms of the number of MPs' votes, the People's Party can still be elected to 2 seats, but it still has to operate slowly.
Regarding whether the "n+1" plan has put a lot of pressure on the grassroots, Chen Youcheng said frankly during the interview that for current members, any possibility of multiple seats is a brand new challenge for them. It is impossible to be without pressure, and it must be To prevent "n+1" from becoming a "two-person, three-legged" game, will it trip you up later? These are all mistakes made in the past nomination strategy. We must be careful, be prepared, and ask the party to make the best plan.
The on-site media also asked whether the party group will adjust its air combat strategy next, for example, will it develop new online programs in the future? Ke Wenzhe responded that the 2024 "election" has just ended and now is the time to start over. Many things are still being planned and will be listed and reported to all walks of life.
