According to Taiwan United Daily News, the first instance of the lawsuit against the invalidity of the election filed by Taipei mayoral candidate Ding Shouzhong will be sentenced on May 10. Taipei City Councilman Wang Hongwei said that Ke Wenzhe whether to express his opinion on 2020 will be an opportunity in early May. Ke Wenzhe is likely to use the lawsuit to declare his power and directly announce his candidacy.
Wang Hongwei pointed out in a political commentary program yesterday that the lawsuit against Ding Shouzhong after the election will be pronounced in the first instance on May 10. She believes that if the court sentences Ding Shouzhong to win the case in the first instance, there will be a problem with the legitimacy of Ko Wenzhe's election as mayor, and Ko is likely to use his efforts to directly announce his candidacy.
The famous rumor present Tang Xianglong also echoed Wang Hongwei's statement, believing that Ding Shouzhong has a very high chance of winning the first instance, because this "nine-in-one" election has obvious flaws in procedural work. For judges, this is a rare opportunity to establish a benchmark for democratic politics in a century. Moreover, no matter whether the first instance wins and loses, it will enter the second instance. The second instance judgment time may be in October. If the mayor of Taipei wants to hold a by-election, "will the 2020 election be tied to?" This will be a big trouble for Ke Wenzhe.
