The nine-in-one election at the end of the year is getting closer and closer. After the Democratic Progressive Party's Taipei mayoral candidate Shen Boyang and New Taipei mayoral candidate Su Qiaohui caught up with or even slightly overtook their opponents in the election campaign where the blue base was considered to be greater than the green, the latest Keelung mayoral poll on the 28th showed that the green camp candidate Tong Ziwei was also catching up, closely following the KMT's current mayor Xie Guoliang. The gap between the two sides has entered the margin of error, triggering discussion. In this regard, former legislator Lin Zhuoshui said that this shows that the spillover and multiplication effect of the "ocean current" driven by Shen Boyang continues to expand.

An online media commissioned Shanshui Polling Company to conduct a Keelung mayoral poll. The Democratic Progressive Party's Keelung mayoral candidate Tong Ziwei's support reached 34.2%, while the Kuomintang's Xie Guoliang had 38%. The gap between the two sides was only 3.8%. In the same poll, 48.9% said they "agree" that the mayor should be replaced. Lin Zhuoshui pointed out in a Facebook post, "The Keelung polls are even, and the KMT in Northern Taiwan, where the blue is greater than the green, is in full distress. This shows that the existing structural and comprehensive sector changes and the multiplier effect of ocean currents driven by individuality continue to expand."
Netizens expressed, "Xie Guoliang's hatred value in Keelung is very high, I basically believe there will be a comeback", "Looking forward to the results of the November election voting", "I hope the prediction comes true", "I hope Taiwanese people can really think rationally, who has the method and method to love Taiwan!", "Shen Boyang" The ocean current it brings is very important. The impact of this force is not just in Taipei, but may spread to the whole of Taiwan. When more people are willing to understand each other and build consensus, Taiwan's unity will have a deeper foundation."
