According to Taiwan media reports, less than 100 days left before the "nine-in-one" county and city mayor election at the end of the year. The Kuomintang Taichung Mayor Lu Xiuyan accepted an interview with Taiwanese media person Huang Weihan on the online program "Have Work Han Talk" on the 24th, saying that polls are just a temporary reference, and the most important thing is the end of the year election. Regarding the evaluation of the year-end election, Lu Xiuyan bluntly said that "just win" and whether she will run for the 2024 Taiwan leader's "general election", Lu Xiuyan hopes to make her term full, but she has never planned the next stop of the political path, and the political path is not the final say.

Recently, the "Beautiful Island Electronic News" released the latest Taichung mayoral election poll. The results showed that Lu Xiuyan, who was striving for re-election, had a support of 52.5%, significantly ahead of his opponent, DPP Taichung mayor candidate Cai Qichang, 21.4%. Lu Xiuyan also maintained a certain high poll with more than 70% of the satisfaction and trust of the policy. Not only that, candidates from other counties and cities, including Kuomintang Taipei City Councilman Xu Qiaoxin, all posted campaign boards for taking photos with Lu Xiuyan, which attracted attention from the outside world.
Comparing with the previous survey results, Lu Xiuyan's support decreased by 5 percentage points. In this regard, Lu Xiuyan said that she did not care so much about polls, because polls were just a temporary reference. The most important thing was whether voters would vote for her once in four years during the election. "I also think that time is the most important to me, because if I do well, citizens will give me another chance. If not, I will see you again."
When I first became the mayor of Taichung, the dissatisfaction of the poll was higher than the satisfaction level, but after August 2019, the golden crossing, and the satisfaction level was even as high as 80%. Lu Xiuyan believes that she is not a genius type, but a long-distance running player, Taichung citizens are very wise and very good at seeing it. Understand her efforts in each, knowing that she has not only been sick and asked for leave, but she has done almost all year round, and she is very serious in every field. "Maybe I am not a genius player, but I am definitely a hard-working player."
When asked about the evaluation of the end of the year election, Lu Xiuyan bluntly said that "just win"; when the four major "referendums" at the end of last year, Taichung's voting results that tied to the "general election" were the same as the Blue Camp's demands, Lu Xiuyan said that she was not very worried about such a result, and she accepted it happily, because general observations are from the perspective of political parties, but what she really valued is the attitude of Taichung citizens on these four major issues? Use this as a reference for policy.
"At that time, someone blamed me for saying why you, the mayor, did not express your opinion." Lu Xiuyan mentioned that many people forced her to express her opinion during the four major "referendums", but Lu Xiuyan had no statements and no comments, because she was waiting for the results of public opinion to be released as a reference for municipal reference. "So there are many important public issues, I hope to respect public opinion, so I should not guide public opinion, nor should I intervene in public opinion."
As for whether 2024 will partner with New Taipei Mayor Hou Youyi to participate in the "general election" of Taiwan leaders, Lu Xiuyan responded that many people have indeed asked her recently whether she will do it well, just like Hou Youyi was asked at the New Taipei City Council, and some people also asked her at the Taichung City Council. Lu Xiuyan hopes to do it well and, based on her current physical conditions, she should also have a full term of office. "I think I am in good health now, why can't I finish it? Do you have no confidence in my physical condition?"
"I am really not pretentious. I have never planned the next political path." Lu Xiuyan emphasized that the political path is not the final say. She has a strong ambition from other politicians and wants to sit in a different position. If you observe from her past circumstances, you will find that she served as a "legislator" of the "opposition party" longer than being a "legislator" of the "ruling" party. "What do you think so far? Doing the present and doing this term well is the reward I have done to the citizens, so I am really not pretentious. I really didn't think so much."
