What was Lin Yanzhu's final number of votes in this election?
What is the KMT’s specific strategy in the Tainan mayoral election?

Political commentator Zhou Weihang recalled that when Ma Ying-jeou ran for mayor of Taipei in 1998, his staff included the park-related policy proposed by the mayor into his speech without approval from the policy department. As a result, the policy could not be implemented after the election, which aroused questions from the mayor and councilors. He pointed out that this incident highlighted the importance of staff selection and called on the current Taipei Mayor Chiang Wanan to select his staff carefully to avoid similar decision-making mistakes.
