民眾黨內部就黨員是否可支持他黨候選人發生爭議,並針對國民黨新竹縣長參選人徐欣瑩的言論進行回應。
竹北藍白合正式破局,民眾黨今召開中央委員會,宣布若有黨員公開支持、助選他黨的新竹縣長、竹北市長候選人,最重開除黨籍。對此,美國聖湯瑪斯大學國際研究講座教授葉耀元認為,以一個缺乏政治實力的第三政黨來說,民眾黨早就玩死自己的未來了。
葉耀元提到,國民黨新竹縣長參選人徐欣瑩否認國民黨曾提出禮讓竹北市長後,民眾黨竹北市長競選團隊發言人黃心愉批評徐欣瑩言而無信、顛倒黑白,甚至「侮辱選民的智商」。但葉耀元質疑:「國民黨如果言而無信,民眾黨你們可以開始全國杯葛國民黨啊。光在那邊抱怨卻不做任何行為,有什麼意義呢?」

葉耀元也反問民眾黨:「侮辱選民的智商?我不是很確定你講的是哪種選民,是本來就會死忠支持國民黨的選民,還是你們少之又少的殘餘支持者呢?就算被騙,感覺也只有你們競選團隊被騙而已啊。」
葉耀元強調,為什麼一個沒有政治實力的民眾黨有臉要國民黨讓任何位子給他們?他們有什麼本錢跟國民黨談交換?民眾黨立院8席難道敢不跟國民黨合作、轉去跟民進黨合作嗎?葉耀元直言:「你們從一開始就站死了反綠這條路線,以一個政治實力缺乏的第三政黨來說,你們早就玩死自己的未來了。」

Vice President Hsiao Meiqin went to Hsinchu City in the morning to attend the furry child support club established by Democratic Progressive Party mayoral candidate Zhuang Jingcheng. She praised his excellent academic experience and ability to integrate and implement resources, and emphasized that Hsinchu needs troubleshooters to make the city move. She pointed out that this is the first and only furry child support association in Taiwan, which maintains the coexistence of fertility and raising furry children. Zhuang Jingcheng said that he will establish a complete animal care system, create a pet-friendly living circle, and make Hsinchu a happy city where humans and animals blend together.

The Publicity and Education Bureau of the Central Propaganda Department, the Political Work Bureau of the National Defense Mobilization Department of the Central Military Commission, and the Social Education Program Center of China Central Radio and Television Station launched the integrated media program "Building National Defense Together", which will premiere on CCTV-12 during prime time on September 6.

Statistics from the Immigration Department show that in the past three years, dozens of cases of Chinese people coming to Taiwan for fake marriages have been investigated and dealt with through methods such as reunion interviews with Chinese spouses every year. The department pointed out that it will continue to strengthen the review and border interview mechanisms, and strengthen domestic inspections by dedicated teams to prevent fake marriages. It can take up to six years for a Chinese spouse to obtain a Taiwan ID card. After four years of dependent residence and two years of long-term residence, they can apply for settlement and establish citizenship to receive the certificate.

Taipei mayoral candidate Shen Boyang of the Democratic Progressive Party, accompanied by council members Hong Jianyi, Hsu Shuhua, Zhang Wenjie and candidate Guo Fan, went to the Nanjing Apartment Market in Songshan District to sweep the streets for votes. Although it rained heavily that day, more than a hundred "Ocean Current" supporters still participated. The team walked around the corner from Jianjian Road and entered Lane 116, Baoqing Street. The reasons why supporters expressed their support for Shen Boyang include criticizing the poor performance of former mayor Jiang Wanan, mentioning the poor implementation of the "fresh milk" policy, the removal of smoking areas, and the removal of pillar handrails in MRT carriages, and calling for changes in Taipei. Some supporters at the scene bet that the rain would stop and put up stickers reading "My Mayor Shen Boyang" to form an equilateral triangle. Shen Boyang said that although it rained, it did not reach a heavy level and the trip continued as usual. He reminded supporters to pay attention to the slippery ground and their own safety.
