The countdown to the election campaign is underway. Candidates from the Southeast District of Central City are playing emergency cards and looking for support from big names.

With 17 days left until the polling day, many city council candidates in Taichung City are playing the emergency card, and some city council candidates are playing the big-name support card, hoping that in the last tense period of less than three weeks, they can focus the attention of voters and get themselves successfully elected.

The Southeast District of Taichung City had 5 seats to be elected in the fourth term, but one less seat was changed to 4 seats in the next term. However, it was 8 to 4. The competition was very fierce, which made even the veteran legislators who had served as members for many terms nervous.

Li Zhong, the central city councilor candidate for the Southeast District of the Kuomintang, has served as a councilor for many terms from small Taichung to greater Taichung. He is sharp in his political opinions and has good words. However, he has been frequently playing emergency cards recently. He emphasized that the outside world thinks that he is the most stable old councillor, but in fact, this is in danger of his votes being allocated away.

In addition, Li Zhong also posted a video on Facebook that Legislative Yuan Han Guoyu supported him. Hanguo Yu said that Li Zhong was very nervous about being re-elected and called on voters in the southeastern district to concentrate their votes to support Li Zhong.

In addition, Chen Yahui, the candidate for city council in the southeastern district of the Democratic Progressive Party, played the support card of big names. She posted a video of former President Tsai Ing-wen supporting her on Facebook. She also received a video of Kaohsiung Mayor Chen Qimai expressing her support. She also praised Chen Yahui for her seriousness in her work. Through the endorsement of two political celebrities, voters believed that she was serious about politics.

In addition, Zhou Qiyang, who is not a party member, drives around in a promotional vehicle. The photo of the front of the vehicle is hand-drawn instead of a photo, which has triggered discussions in the media and is also an alternative form of propaganda.
