According to Taiwanese media reports, in the next Matsu County Magistrate election, the Kuomintang nominated deputy county magistrate Wang Zhongming and former Land Director Cao Eryuan to compete together. The Democratic Progressive Party nominated Matsu County for the first time, and the county party committee chairman Li Wen participated in the election.

Matsu has a special geographical environment, a small population and is relatively united. Therefore, the "five common" factors such as the same clan, the same surname, the same village, the same temple and classmates are often the key to influencing the villagers to cast a sacred vote, but Matsu does not There is a small exodus of people, and most of them live in Taoyuan, New Taipei, and other places. Cross-sea ticket grabbing is also one of the priorities of the candidates.
Liu Zengying, the current Matsu County Magistrate, has won many five-star county magistrate honors during his tenure and has a solid foundation in public opinion. Wang Zhongming is his high school classmate. In addition to serving as deputy county magistrate for 8 years, he also served as the director and secretary-general of the Education Bureau, administrative With rich experience, Liu hopes that he can continue the project during his tenure this time, which means "handing over the baton".
Cao Eryuan also has rich experience, and his younger brother Cao Erju once served as the ninth chairman of the Taoyuan Youth Entrepreneurship Association (now the New Entrepreneurship Association). After Cao Eryuan resigned and decided to join the election, he also stated that he would replace him on the island. To help canvass votes, and with the surname "Cao" being the third most common surname in Matsu, he has strong local connections and his strength cannot be underestimated.
As for Li Wen, the county magistrate candidate recruited by the Democratic Progressive Party for the first time in Matsu County since the founding of the party, after the establishment of the Matsu County Party Headquarters two years ago, he has actively served as a bridge between the Democratic Progressive Party authorities and Matsu County, and continued to fight for resources. This time he is running for office in hopes of flipping the blue map. However, Mazu’s vote structure is set and he lacks clan power, so it will be difficult for him to shake up the county magistrate race. But whether he can lead candidates for local public offices such as councilors, township representatives and village chiefs to win the election Some seats remain to be seen.
