There are 60 days left before the 2026 nine-in-one election. In addition to actively assisting candidates from the KMT and opposition alliances, Taichung Mayor Lu Hsiu-yan has recently sent a simple-level executive from the Taichung City Government to the campaign office of KMT New Taipei City mayoral candidate Li Sichuan to form a "Luchuan connection" to fully support Li Sichuan in winning the New Taipei City mayoral election.

Shock Media released a New Taipei City mayoral election poll on the 23rd. DPP candidate Su Qiaohui had a slight lead of 38.2% support, Li Sichuan's 37.1%. The gap between the two was only 1.1 percentage points. Compared with the 5% gap in the previous blue camp system, it is closer.

As the election campaign becomes more intense, the Kuomintang is worried that the green camp will frequently resort to tactics, whether it is judicial intervention in the election or various smear articles to declare war, which will add to the sense of uncertainty in New Taipei City, which is currently in a stalemate in the polls. Not only will Lu Hsiu-yan and Taipei Mayor Chiang Wanan support the election after the general inquiry, Lu Hsiu-yan will also send crisis management talents around her to Li Sichuan's team in advance. She is currently the only county mayor of the Kuomintang to express its support for Li Sichuan in the form of a "loan general".
