"That's tentatively decided!" The Democratic Progressive Party camp has decided to gather in Taichung on the evening of Friday, November 20, the golden weekend before the election. It will be led by Taichung mayoral candidate He Xinchun and invite Taipei mayoral candidate Shen Boyang, New Taipei mayoral candidate Su Qiaohui, and Keelung mayoral candidate Tong Ziwei to hold a campaign party next to the Taichung-Japan high-speed rail station. The venue has been confirmed to be borrowed and can accommodate an estimated 50,000 people.
As for Shen Boyang's statement on the 8th, the Taipei election situation is still very tight. Now all the elections (election support) are through online or video recording. Taichung is still fine-tuning. "We have to fight hard to win now, and we have to think about the timing again." Regarding this, Green Camp in Taichung has not received any definite news.
DPP Taichung City Party Committee Chairman Xu Mugui said that the tentative plan is to invite Shen Boyang, Su Qiaohui, and Tong Ziwei to come to Taichung to work with He Xinchun to boost Taiwan's momentum. The location will be next to the High Speed Rail Taichung Station and the Wudu Sunrise Parking Lot.
Former President Tsai Ing-wen, the Green Camp's most popular election aide, may also be present to set off a "Tsai Shih Shih" whirlwind, boosting Taiwan's momentum in the final battle for the fourth time after going to Taichung to assist Ho Hsinchun in September, October and November 5.
Green camp insiders pointed out that the venue is located at the High Speed Rail Taichung Station, straight away from the Taiwan Railway's Xinwuri Exit. Former legislator Chen Baiwei was held at the Wudu Sunrise Parking Lot the night before he was dismissed in October 5 years ago (2021). On November 20, it is expected to create a legend of more than 50,000 people.
Zeng Wei, the Democratic Progressive Party's Taichung Uri parliamentary candidate, said that the owner of the Sunrise Parking Lot was a good friend of his and that there was indeed an event on the evening of the 20th. The operator also said that the venue was borrowed before the election and that paid parking could only be parked next to the scaffolding that night.
DPP candidate for Taichung City Council in the Wuri constituency, Zhang Jiaun, said that opponents from the blue camp have rented out all the big venues in Taichung, and it is obvious that they are trying to block seats. "Are they going to bloom everywhere?" We look forward to the second visit of the "Ocean Current" to boost the election sentiment in Taiwan.
