According to Taiwan media reports, New Taipei Mayor Hou Youyi and Taichung Mayor Lu Xiuyan strive for re-election, and the benefits of auxiliary elections spilled out of the north, central and southern Taiwan. Except for Taipei City Councilman Xu Qiaoxin, a member of the Taipei City Councilor, took a photo board, the Kuomintang Taichung City Councilor Luo Tingwei and the candidate Zheng Boqi, who moved from the grassroots level to Taichung City, both posted a campaign board for the reunion with Hou Youyi and Lu Xiuyan in Taichung, which was quite eye-catching.

Luo Tingwei said that according to the latest media polls, New Taipei Mayor Hou Youyi's support is 57%, leading the Democratic Progressive Party's nomination for Lin Jialong, with a 36% gap between the two sides. According to the "Beautiful Island Electronic News" poll, Taichung Mayor Lu Xiuyan's support rate was 52.2%, significantly leading the DPP's nominee Cai Qichang, and Lu Xiuyan's overall lead in all administrative regions, age groups and education levels, with Lu Cai's gap of more than 30%.
Hou Youyi and Lu Xiuyan's polls are steadily leading, and local blue camp candidates have put out a combination of campaign boards with Hou Youyi or Lu Xiuyan as a weapon to attract tickets.
Luo Tingwei, who posted a campaign board with Hou Youyi and Lu Xiuyan, said that Hou Youyi gives people the impression that he is an iron man, and Lu Xiuyan is a representative of tenderness. Combined with the characteristics of "iron man tenderness", he supervises the municipal affairs in the council, checks the budget meticulously, and has the iron man's persistence; when facing voters or expresses love, he needs to show tenderness and empathy.
Taichung City Council candidate Zheng Boqi said that after his joint board with Lu Xiuyan and Hou Youyi was posted, he received attention from the villagers. He thanked the two strongest mayors of the blue camp for their blessings. He will work harder to win the support of the villagers. In the future, he will focus on municipal supervision and the welfare of citizens, so as not to let the two "strongest mayors" leak.
According to Taiwan media, New Taipei City candidate Lin Dingchao is now at the intersection of Jixian Road and Sanhe Road at the intersection of Jixian Road and Sanhe Road. The four big words "Training the Dragon" are printed on the board, which implies that the Democratic Progressive Party New Taipei City Mayor candidate Lin Jialong lost again.
Lin Dingchao said that in 2018, Lu Xiuyan defeated Lin Jialong; and according to the 2022 poll, Hou Youyi had a very high chance to defeat Lin Jialong again. As a candidate for the Kuomintang New Taipei City Council, he will not only supervise the New Taipei City Government, but also supervise Lin Jialong's overbearing campaign checks, because Lin will only question the political achievements of the current municipal government and cannot come up with more specific countermeasures, highlighting his lack of understanding of the New Taipei City Government.
"New Taipei citizens are not second-class citizens!" Lin Dingchao emphasized that Lin Jialong did not dare to face the corruption cases during the term of the mayor of Taichung and the negligence of the "Minister of Transportation". He was determined to run for the mayor of Taipei, but just wanted to participate in this New Taipei election. "Lin Jialong's first choice is not New Taipei City, and the first choice of New Taipei citizens is not Lin Jialong."
Lin Dingchao believes that Lin Jialong has not dared to sign "not enter the cabinet after losing the election" because Lin Jialong did not want to win at all, and just hoped that it would not be too ugly. Anyway, if he lost the election, there is still the next "cabinet" position waiting for him.
