The Taiwan People's Party is fully prepared for the 2022 county and city elections, and the selection of Taipei City Councilors is roughly determined. According to Taiwan's "Zhongshi News Network", Wu Yixuan, former public relations chief of the People's Party, has gained high support in the party and will not unexpectedly go to The Zhongzheng Wanhua District. But former judge Zhang Yaoyu questioned the lack of a national poll in the party, fearing that the candidate's local strength would be ignored. Recently, more than 40 local people signed his complaints, including representatives of palaces, temples, markets, and enterprises, as well as He Guorong, a founding member of the People's Party and the mayor of the new camp, who also joined the signature. But Lin Guocheng, chairman of the party committee, said he had not received a complaint, stressing that the procedure was clearly written in September last year and proceeded according to the rules of the game.

Small parties are also infighting, and the People's Party Taipei City Councilor nomination has exploded infighting! The former judge lost to the former anchor

Wu Yixuan, former public relations chief of the People's Party

The nomination of members of the Taipei Municipal Party Department of the People's Party is about to be completed, and the process consists of three stages, namely party member voting, cadre voting (40% each) and evaluation team review (20%), planning 6 constituencies to nominate 1 person each to run, the first two stages have been completed. In the Zhongzheng Wanhua constituency, because Wu Yixuan won a big victory in the votes of party members and cadres, far ahead of former judge Zhang Yaoyu, he would be nominated smoothly if there was no accident.

Unexpectedly, there were different voices in the localities, and many local people who had a good interaction with Zhang Yaoyu believed that Wu, as an "airborne soldier," lacked cultivation at the grass-roots level, and was afraid that he would not make much contribution to the constituency after being elected, so they collectively signed a letter of love that "supporting the Zhongzheng Wanhua primary election should be adopted by the whole people" to the Party Department of Taipei City, asking Lin Guocheng to face up to the local voice. According to Taiwan media reports, the list shows that more than 20 lichangers have expressed their support, and the rest have representatives of the Market Autonomous Association, the Righteous Elimination Police, catering enterprises and palaces and temples, and the number of signatures has reached 40.

The content of the letter pointed out that the evaluation mechanism of the primary election of the Taipei Municipal Party Department of the People's Party is to adopt a small range and cannot reflect the actual support of the constituency, and no matter who is finally qualified, it is impossible to truly evaluate the actual advantages and local strengths of the candidate. Even if the co-signers are not members of the People's Party, for the sake of the well-being of The Zhongzheng Wanhua District and the continuation of Ko Wen-che's policy, it is suggested that the evaluation system of candidates for councillors in the district should adopt a national survey, and Huang Shanshan, who intends to take over Ke Wenzhe's candidacy for the next mayor, is also named to accept the confession.

He Guorong, the commander of the new battalion, who is an important "pile foot" of Ke Wenzhe, wrote to the People's Party, mentioning that Zhang Yaoyu mentioned the primary election system when he visited him, and he believed that the current method did not meet Ke Wenzhe's always fair, just, and open requirements, and suggested that the whole people should be used to handle it.

According to a source familiar with the matter, there is widespread rumor in the localities that Lin Guocheng, chairman of the Taipei City Party Department of the People's Party, has a deep friendship with Xu Lixin, a local non-party member who used to be known as "Ke Jiajun." In order to avoid the excessively strong People's Party members from dividing up the votes, it was only because Wu Yixuan, who was weaker in the locality, went out on the expedition with the intention of "guaranteeing Xu Lixin" and killing two birds with one stone.

In this regard, Zhang Yaoyu confirmed that some local people signed for him, and he also criticized the flaws in the nomination mechanism of the party department, questioning lin Guocheng who somehow found 48 selected cadres and party members who were not well-known, so he asked this group of people to assist in the primary election operation, the representativeness and public opinion foundation are weak, it is difficult to take into account the local strength of the candidates, relying only on personal preferences, so why should he claim that there is an evaluation mechanism?

Wu Yixuan questioned that the party partners who intend to run for election are fully aware of and willing to accept the operation mode of the Taipei City Party Department before conducting the primary election. At the last minute, some candidates tried to undermine the original system, did they think that the results of the primary election were unfavorable to them, and then they committed contradictory behaviors? Ko Wenzhe has publicly said that the People's Party is very weak, and it is better to unite and try to make the party stronger, rather than using small actions to carry out internal friction.

Lin Guocheng also stressed that the procedures were written very clearly in the announcement on September 1 last year, and the national poll may be reviewed by the next Party Central Committee, and he has not received a complaint, that is, according to the rules of the game, do not finish the poll, then simply use universal suffrage and directly enter the election.

As for the weak public opinion base criticized, Lin Guocheng stressed that every party has its own rules, and he understands that it is inevitable that there will be regrets about the loss of pearls if he hates more porridge and less porridge. Among the 37 people, those who are recommended will say that they are fair, and those who are not recommended will think that there is injustice, which is also the common sentiment of people, but it should be treated rationally. There are pros and cons to any approach, and you can't say that your rules are correct and fair.

It is understood that Wu Yixuan, who was previously a news anchor on Taiwan Television and served as a deputy spokesperson for Gou's campaign team, later joined the People's Party and served as the public relations director of the People's Party. (Source: Taiwan's "Zhongshi News Network")
