Taiwan's nine-in-one local elections will be held on November 28, and the Taipei mayoral election is regarded as a precursor to the 2028 presidential election. The current Kuomintang mayor Jiang Wanan is seeking re-election and faces a challenge from DPP legislator Shen Boyang. Chiang Wanan was elected mayor of Taipei at the age of 43. He promoted the opening of the Taipei Arena, the MRT project, and attracted Huida to set up its headquarters. However, the satisfaction of the chief minister only ranked fourth among the six cities. After Shen Boyang announced his candidacy, he changed his image and used the slogan "Ocean Current" to gain momentum. The gap in support between the two narrowed from 28 percentage points in the TVBS poll in May to 1.2% in the People's Association poll in September.
