Taiwan Strait Network reported on June 10 that the DPP’s 2020 primary election poll will be conducted from the 10th to the 14th, and the results will be announced as early as noon on the 13th. On the eve of the poll, Tsai-Lai's camp seized the last time to sprint.
Zheng Wencan and Chen Ju "supported Cai" again
Democratic Progressive Party primary election will be conducted on the 10th. Tsai Ing-wen focused on Taoyuan and Hsinchu on the 9th, and swept four temples and religious activities in Taoyuan North District in the morning to win the support of voters. Zheng Wencan, the Mayor of Taoyuan of the DPP, accompanied the whole process and supported Tsai to the end. Zheng also explained why he publicly supported Tsai, because the five-person coordination group within the party's primary election was over, and it was clear that he would give Tsai another four years. Zheng Wencan also said that Tsai Ing-wen is the best at winning 2020.
When asked if he publicly supported Cai, would he feel embarrassed about Lai Ching-te, who is also a new trend? Zheng Wencan said that he rarely speaks about factional affairs. After more than ten years, he has firm confidence in what Tsai did to the DPP. Tsai Ing-wen will lead Taiwan better.
The "Secretary-General" of Tsai Office Chen Ju also expressed her support for Tsai Ing-wen's re-election on Facebook on the 9th. In recent days, many public officials of the Democratic Progressive Party have expressed their support for Tsai Ing-wen's re-election through text messages and Facebook.
Tsai Ing-wen's camp has also rushed to organize mobilization. Spokesperson Ruan Zhaoxiong said that the organization of Xiaoying Friends Association has been launched, and many supporters have also helped promote through Line and Facebook, reminding everyone to remember to answer poll calls and how to answer calls.
Lai Ching-te "all the way north"
Lai Ching-te set off from Tsai Ing-wen's hometown Pingtung on the morning of the 9th and began a three-day "strengthening Taiwan Convoy parade". The convoy headed north and will arrive at Kaida Grand Avenue in Taipei on the 11th. The convoy parade scene will be broadcast live on Facebook at the same time.
supporters also spread the "Poll Conduct Code" through the Internet, reminding supporters to turn on the ringtone of their mobile phones. If you have a strange number, you must answer it and answer it until the end.
According to internal polls of the Tsai camp, Tsai Ing-wen's support has begun to surpass Lai Ching-te recently, and has maintained a leading support among young people aged 20 to 29.
Lai Jung said that since there is no resource to calculate the polls, media polls have always been their important reference. From the perspective of grassroots voices and media polls, Lai Ching-te's momentum is better.
Chen Shui-bian: The DPP will recruit Tsai Ing-wen and Lai Ching-te. Some DPP members believe that both Tsai Ing-wen and Lai Ching-te's performance in political views is stable, and the impact on polls is limited, and the poll results will determine the outcome on a small scale.
Chen Shui-bian said on Facebook on the 9th that the quality of the Tsai-Rai debate has nothing to do with winning or losing. Even if Lai Ching-te's poll beats Tsai Ing-wen, if it is within the error range, the DPP may issue "dominant clauses" at the National Congress and directly recruit Tsai Ing-wen.
Chen Shui-bian said, who can guarantee what variables will happen if Tsai Ing-wen loses the primary election? Even though Party Chairman Zhuo Rongtai said that "it is impossible to pass the overlord clause" and repeatedly declared that the rules of the primary election will not be changed, the Zhongzhenghui still modified the primary election methods.
