年底的新竹縣長選舉3人角逐,有國民黨徐欣瑩、民進黨鄭朝方、以及無黨籍政治素人朱定瑀。選情看似單純持續藍、綠對決,但因纏綁了竹北藍白合破局、徐欣瑩黨內最大勁敵陳見賢轉身下台卻沒喊團結等問題,詭譎風雲冠於全台,也更勝以往歷次百里侯之戰。
藍、綠對決始終是新竹縣長選舉宿命,但藍營這次難打,歸根究柢就在徐欣瑩的「誠信」爭議。從多次進出國民黨、到對藍白合議題,她一路被質疑「無信不立」。
初選時,其支持者或側翼,對近50年忠貞黨員、副縣長陳見賢粗暴無情地攻擊,儘管她喊冤不是她幹的,但反噬力道卻如影隨形。特別是陳見賢以子之矛攻子之盾的不選聲明,全文用「誠信」貫穿曬委屈,但就是沒走入含淚喊團結的俗套,發出藍營「動員令」。
竹北是民眾黨全國票倉所在,竹北藍白合關乎白營存亡。破局後,小草怒火噴向徐欣瑩,喊投綠、投廢就是不投藍!後續怎麼讓白營和陳見賢支持者,不以「教訓徐欣瑩」為投票行為,是她拚勝選要先通過的障礙。
新竹縣綠軍基本盤頂多近4成,自前縣長林光華交棒後,已有25年不見綠地。
鄭朝方用破4成的得票率入主竹北,如今交出的成績備受各界肯定,就連柯文哲也認同他「不那麼的綠」、「吸得到白營的票」,這次想要打破綠營在竹縣的天花板不無可能。只是其家族長期被貼上「金權」標籤,他依舊難逃這層陰影。
目前綠軍除了邊繼續「展寶」,拿出鄭朝方的執政實績,邊努力「拔草」,吸引白營和更多中間選民支持,也鎖定佔全縣人口7成7以上,票倉所在的竹北、竹東以及湖口,祭出「穩住竹東、打贏湖口、大勝竹北」策略,全力爭取勝選。

The U.S.-Canada trade talks broke down, and the United States imposed tariffs on Canadian goods and used the "51st State" rhetoric to exert pressure.
