Taipei, 21 Jan (China Commentary Agency) -- The latest poll released by TVBS on the 20th shows that in the 2022 Taipei mayoral war, 40% of the Kuomintang Jiang Wan'an, 29% of the "Minister of Health and Welfare" Chen Shizhong, and 19% of Taipei Vice Mayor Huang Shanshan became a hot topic. Although Ko Wen-che, chairman of the Taiwan People's Party and mayor of Taipei, recently expressed that he "wanted to defeat blue-green alone", he could not say for sure before the official nomination, and judging from the details of the people's party's nomination of 2 people to run for city councilors in two constituencies in Taipei City, the possibility of blue and white union cannot be completely ruled out.
Jiang Wan'an has a high support of 40%, and the outside world is not surprised, after all, the basic market of Taipei City is blue is greater than green, and Ding Shouzhong, who represented the Kuomintang in the 2018 Taipei mayoral election, won 40.8% of the vote, almost defeating Ke Wenzhe. In the 2020 general election, the blue army can also get 34.38% of the political party votes in Taipei City, 30.36% of the Democratic Progressive Party, and 12.94% of the People's Party.
The increase in Huang Shanshan's support may be related to the two outbreaks of local epidemics in Taiwan, and Ke Wenzhe and Huang Shanshan's in and out of the epidemic prevention. Jiang Wan'an did almost disappear in front of the media camera when the epidemic broke out in May last year, which in turn gave Huang Shanshan's polls room for growth and the power to disrupt the situation.
Jiang Wan'an rumored that he would feast on the blue camp at noon on the 18th, and would officially announce his candidacy for mayor of Taipei after the Spring Festival. Although Jiang has a big chance of winning, the most stable way is still to win cooperation with Ke Wenzhe, who has many incompatibilities with the Green Camp, otherwise if Ke Wenzhe criticizes Jiang Wan'an's future vision of Taipei Municipality, I am afraid that there will be a "vague and clear" effect, affecting the flow of White Camp supporters after determining that Huang Shanshan does not have a winning side.
Hao Longbin, former vice chairman of the Kuomintang, shouted out "blue and white cooperation" and used polls to decide who won and who came out to vote, and even Li Baiyi, a member of the Lanying City Council, said that if the DPP pushed Chen Shizhong, Ko Wenzhe would not support Huang Shanshan's candidacy and guarantee Jiang Wan'an's election.
Although Ke Wenzhe's first reaction was to "defeat Blue and Green alone", the second wave of local people's election lists announced by the People's Party on the evening of the 19th was obviously very different from the way each constituency nominated one person in each constituency of the first wave of the list announced, and there were hints hidden in the details.
The People's Party nominated 2 seats for Huang Haoying and Chen Siyu in the first constituency of Taipei City (Shilin and Beitou District), and 2 seats for Zhang Zhihao and Zhang Xingsong in the sixth constituency (Daan and Wenshan Districts), while the rest of the constituencies maintain 1 seat, these two districts are basically blue greater than green, especially Daan and Wenshan District are Ma Ying-jeou's residence, the current Pan-Blue City Councilor has more than 8 seats, even Speaker Chen Jinxiang is in this district, is Bai Camp using this to hint at the space for blue and white?
Ke Wenzhe has not set the tone for this wave of nominations, has expressed to the outside world "first let them run for a while, wait for the registration to do a poll again, decide the final nomination of 1 seat or 2 seats", this uncertainty is quite intriguing, blue and white to cooperate with the mayor of Taipei, blue camp technical courtesy city councilor seat is the basic model, the future blue camp will have relevant actions, it is worth careful observation.
