In the final stage of the Kaohsiung mayoral election, both blue and green are fighting a land war. Yesterday, both sides mobilized to build momentum. Today, they each went deep into the market. Lai Ruilong rushed into the Blue Camp's Zuoying Hallo Market, and Ke Zhien visited the Lingya National Market near the Kaohsiung City Hall.

Lai Ruilong visited the famous Haro Market in Zuoying District early in the morning with DPP Zuoying Nanzi District Councilors Huang Wenzhi and Li Yahui, as well as parliamentary candidates Yin Li and Zhang Yili. He said that he was born in a vegetable market and was familiar with the market. He liked the human touch in the market. While paying for his vote, he also bought a lot of vegetables and fruits, five from each stall, because he was No. 5.

In response to Lai Ruilong's deep penetration into the blue camp vote base, Ke Zhien believes that at the last moment of the election, everyone will try to enter less familiar areas. She has also visited the Erling Market in Xiaogang (Lai Ruilong's legislative constituency). This part should respect the rhythm of each candidate; she also likes the market, knows the needs of mothers-in-law, understands the hardships of doing business, and hopes to gain more support through direct interaction.
