Nine-in-one local elections will be held at the end of the year, and political parties are integrating candidates and making electoral arrangements. When the Democratic Progressive Party was in power, the Kuomintang faced competitive pressure from internal factions and the Popular Party.
At the end of the year, the nine-in-one election campaign was tense. KMT Chairman Zheng Liwen failed to consolidate the heads of counties and cities in Hsinchu County, Zhubei, Changhua and other counties. Disputes and internal fighting continued within the party and the People's Party. On the other hand, DPP Chairman and President Lai Qingde consolidated and united in various counties and cities. Zhuang Ruixiongjin, a member of the Democratic Progressive Party election committee and secretary-general of the party group, said that Lai Qingde, the chairman of the ruling party, is doing his best to act as a support. DPP supporters are very pleased with the internal integration, and their combat effectiveness will certainly increase.
Zhuang Ruixiong pointed out that for political parties, the more united a party is, its combat effectiveness will definitely increase, and the election results will be favored by the outside world. Zheng Liwen is a very assertive party chairman. In terms of the KMT's control of local forces, she may not think that is so important in her heart. It is of course very good for a political party to maintain its own values. Zheng may have seen that the KMT should not be tied up by local factions, so she implemented her will.

Is there any way to integrate within the KMT, and is there any way for Blue and White to cooperate? Zhuang Ruixiong analyzed that from the perspective of Changhua, Changhua County Mayor Wang Huimei has completely different ideas and opinions from Zheng Liwen. In order to win the election, the candidate who is most suitable for the local government is put forward to call on supporters to cast their votes. Now the views of the Changhua County Magistrate are completely different from those of the Chairman. The county magistrate did not accept the candidate proposed by the chairman, and the county magistrate had doubts. Zheng Liwen asked political comrades to do their best to assist in the election. In fact, it was a matter of seeking fish in a tree, and in the end it turned out to be superficially compatible but mysteriously alienated.
Zhuang Ruixiong emphasized that Chen Suyue, the candidate for Changhua County Magistrate of the DPP, has been operating in the local area for a long time and has put forward a vision for the future of Changhua, which is a positive force every day; the KMT is showing division, division, and division every day. Compared with the two, the DPP has a lot of room. Chen Suyue should work hard, and the DPP is very optimistic about her.
In Hsinchu County and Zhubei City, Zhuang Ruixiong believes that this place involves the Kuomintang’s internal and external Kuomintang parties. How to talk about it from the perspective of Blue and White? It turns into blue and white fighting each other, which is very exciting. If the show continues, there are only 80 days left to show it. The DPP can just watch the fun.
Zhuang Ruixiong concluded that Lai Qingde, the chairman of the ruling party, is trying his best to act as a support. DPP supporters are very pleased with the internal integration, and their combat effectiveness will of course be improved. Blue and White have different values involved, and their subjectivity must be ensured, which will also have to take away the power of local politics. Of course, there will be constant conflicts.
