Polls show that the difference in support between Shen Boyang and Jiang Wanan is only 1.2%. The Blue Camp questions the credibility of the data.

A poll by the Trustees Association showed that the difference in support between Democratic Progressive Party Taipei mayoral candidate Shen Boyang and current mayor Chiang Wanan is only 1.2 percentage points. KMT Taipei City Councilor Yang Zhidou questioned the relationship between the polling unit and UMC founder Tsao Hsing-cheng before the poll was released. The blue camp tried to use the "general recall" label to influence voters' perceptions. The fan blog "Voice and Politics" pointed out that this move reflects the anxiety of the blue camp, and companies regard the closer election campaign as a real change, but in fact they are competing for the power to interpret the current election situation.

Wu Yijie revealed that the husband-in-law of Kuomintang candidate Lin Naili was a wolf teacher and had used his status as a teacher to commit crimes against underage female students.

Tainan Yongkang District Councilor candidate Wu Yijie in Taiwan revealed that the Kuo husband-in-law of the People's Party MP candidate Lin Naili in the same district was a natural science teacher and director of a junior high school. He used his identity to molest underage female students many times and tried to secretly film them. In 2025, he was sentenced for taking advantage of power to commit obscenity and attempted sexual image filming. However, Lin Naili still took her to participate in constituency activities and organize parent-child activities. Wu Yijie questioned whether his background as a psychological counselor should be aware of the risk of secondary harm.

Wu Jingyi analyzes the focus of the Sichuan-Xi meeting: Taiwan independence discussion and key issues of arms sales

Media person Wu Jingyi pointed out that US President Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping will meet in Washington. The focus will not be on the length of the handshake or the smile, but on Trump’s choice of words to discuss Taiwan independence, whether the US$14 billion arms sales to Taiwan are blocked, and whether Taiwan’s purchased weapons can be delivered normally. She emphasized that the key to Taiwan's security lies in improving its defense capabilities, international connections and strategic value, so that anyone must calculate the cost of attacking Taiwan.

The Ministry of Justice's expansion of criminal punishment has caused controversy, and legislators and experts have called for simultaneous support of human resources

In order to alleviate the overcrowding in prisons, the Ministry of Justice has expanded the measures of re-examination. However, Zhuang Ruixiong, Secretary-General of the Democratic Progressive Party Caucus of the Legislative Yuan, and Huang Jinqiao, a public supplementary education lecturer, pointed out that if there are insufficient manpower for phased tracking, social labor transfer, and custodial care, the re-sentencing policy may transfer the pressure from prisons to the District Prosecutor's Office and the custodial system. They emphasized that policy implementation needs to simultaneously review the front-line workload and resource allocation to prevent re-examination from becoming a mere formality or increasing the risk of recidivism.
