The Chiayi mayoral candidate of the Blue and White People's Party, Zhang Qikai, went to the Democratic Progressive Party candidate Wang Meihui's campaign headquarters on the 1st to submit a debate invitation, but was rejected. Wang Meihui was not at the campaign headquarters at the time, and the campaign cadre came forward to express that "this approach is not welcome or acceptable."

On the morning of the 8th, writer Ku Ling posted on Facebook that Zhang Qikai claimed to be a lost member of the Kuomintang because of the slump in the election, hoping to restore his party membership in the future. The People's Party also allows dual party memberships. Ku Ling accused Zhang Qikai of lying, "The People's Party only allows ordinary party members to have dual party memberships, but public officials are not allowed. Does he want to rebel against the party?"
After posting the article, Kuling quoted other media reports below, saying that Zhang Qikai said that he has a deep connection with the Kuomintang and is a lost party member.

The People's Party emphasized political integrity and had previously officially announced that Hsinchu County would not adopt a simple "Blue and White" approach, hoping that the tone would not spill over and affect other constituencies.
