According to the poll, 35.9% of the people in New Taipei City believe that Li Sichuan is suitable to be the mayor of New Taipei City, a decrease of 4.7 percentage points from late August; 33.5% think that Li is not suitable, an increase of 6.5 percentage points from late August.
Huang Qinglong, founding chairman of the Xinmin Association, said that in terms of suitability to be the mayor of New Taipei City, Su Qiaohui has 48.6% and Li Sichuan 35.9%. Su Qiaohui is significantly ahead of Li Sichuan.
In addition, in terms of support, Su Qiaohui has 43.1% and Li Sichuan 30.0%, with Su Qiaohui leading by 13.1 percentage points. Dai Lian said that after the "ocean current" rises, the first area to be affected will be Beibeiji, the second will be the metropolitan area, Taichung and other metropolitan areas will be affected, and the third impact will be other counties and cities.
Dai Lian pointed out that not only the People's Association, but also other organizations are conducting polls. The gap in the polls in some counties and cities will be unimaginably large, but many will not mention it to the outside world because it will arouse a sense of crisis in the other camp and also cause an impact on the election.
Dallion mentioned that between now and before the vote, each camp will probably talk about the election situation five or five times. The camp with a high chance of winning does not want to inflame the opponent's camp's sense of crisis, and urges its supporters to come out to vote, and may even play emergency cards.
Dai Lian analyzed that in this New Taipei City poll, Su Qiaohui led by 13.1 percentage points. The pan-green people were very enthusiastic and had a very high rate of expressing their opinions, a bit like the 2020 general election. Therefore, the "spiral of silence" phenomenon will also form in the pan-blue or white camp, so there will be some differences in the positions of the political parties.
Su Qiaohui's support increases. Dai Li'an: Take some votes out of Li Sichuan's pocket
After cross-analysis, in terms of support, Dai Lian said that 43.1% of this survey said they would vote for Su Qiaohui, an increase of 7.9 percentage points compared with late August, and even 11 percentage points more for "females". Su Qiaohui has made gains in the "blue zone", which is equivalent to taking some votes out of Li Sichuan's pocket.
Dai Li'an emphasized that the increase in Su Qiaohui's support did not all come from the middle voters, but also from the blue camp. In terms of age, the ages of 20 to 29, 40 to 49, and 60 to 69 also contribute a lot to Su Qiaohui's support, and even the "iron ticket" of the Kuomintang is turning around.
According to the poll, Li Sichuan's support rate is 30.0%, which is 4.7 percentage points lower than in late August. 1.5% would vote for independent Su Huihuang, 9.5% said they would not vote or cast a spoiled vote, and 15.8% did not answer clearly.
This poll was entrusted by the Trustees Association to Mr. Dai Li'an to be responsible for the questionnaire design and analysis, and Beacon Market Research Company conducted the telephone interviews. From October 6 to October 8, the survey targets were people registered in New Taipei City and over the age of 20. 1,073 people were successfully interviewed (750 people on residential phones and 323 on mobile phones). The maximum sampling error of the combined sample at a reliability level of 95% was ±3.0%.

During the New Taipei City mayoral election, Su Qiaohui said in response to Zhang Shujuan's accusation of Zhou Yukou's own revelations that she was also under attack on that day's program. The so-called "straight-ball showdown" only refers to her own position. She could not comment on Zhang's case and did not want to comment. She also emphasized that elections should focus on policies rather than private areas. People never know what kind of unbearable pain a single sentence may cause.

A New Taipei mayoral election poll conducted by the People's Association from October 6 to 8 showed that DPP candidate Su Qiaohui's support reached 43.1%, leading KMT candidate Li Sichuan's 30.0%, a difference of 13.1 percentage points. In an interview, Su Qiaohui said that although she was pleasantly surprised, she needed to be cautious of fear, and emphasized that the two-North elections may have a linkage effect, but New Taipei must maintain its subjectivity. The poll samples are people registered in New Taipei City over the age of 20, with a valid sample of 1,073 people and an error of ±3.0%.

Polling expert Dai Li'an pointed out that some blue-leaning media polls showed that Li Sichuan of the Kuomintang was ahead of Su Qiaohui of the DPP by 6.7 percentage points, but this was actually caused by the incorrect use of 2018 "Korean Wave" data weighting. His latest poll showed that Su Qiaohui's support was 43.1%, Li Sichuan was 30.0%, and Su Qiaohui was ahead by 13.1 percentage points. He suggested that predictions should be made based on the results of the 2024 regional legislative election rather than outdated data.

FTV's 8 o'clock drama "Tofu Mom" originally wanted to invite Taipei mayoral candidate Shen Boyang of the Democratic Progressive Party to make a guest appearance, but it caused a backlash from media people and was deemed by the Ministry of Labor to have violated the Occupational Safety Law. Shen Boyang said that the reason he did not participate in the performance was that his schedule was full and he could not cooperate. He also emphasized that the safety and care of the staff are very important, and relevant legislation and industry discussions must continue.

The Taichung City Council held the third reading of the 2027 municipal general budget today. City Councilor Chen Yurong of the Democratic Progressive Party proposed a temporary motion, requesting the Taichung City Government to study the feasibility of universal cash at the end of the year as soon as possible before leaving office, and to take stock of tax revenue and financial resources to give the citizens clear answers. Speaker Zhang Qingzhao said that the case had been reviewed at the previous meeting and sent to the municipal government for discussion and handling.

New Taipei mayor candidate Su Qiaohui of the Democratic Progressive Party leads the KMT candidate Li Sichuan by 43.1% and 30.0% in the Daley poll, with a gap of 13.1 percentage points. Legislator Lin Junxian pointed out that although polls show that the lead has expanded, Dai Li'an reminded that if comprehensive factors are included in the weighting, the actual lead is only about 4.1 percentage points, which is still in the stage of change. Voters need to actually vote to achieve "ocean currents and wisdom".
