Former KMT Kaohsiung Mayor Han Kuo-yu Come back to assist in the election "Is it a tonic or poison for the blue camp?" There are different opinions from all walks of life, including Taichung Mayor Lu Xiuyan, New Taipei Mayor Hou Youyi both have conservative attitudes towards the joint Han Kuo-yu. However, Nantou County Mayor candidate Xu Shuhua html was generously raising momentum with South Korea on the 229th. Hong Kong China Review News Agency published an observation article on the 30th, pointing out that it may be related to the fact that the structure of Nantou voters is larger than that of green. South Korea's appeal will help to gather pan-blue votes to maximize it, which will help Xu Shuhua deal with the negative offensive of the green camp.
Xu Shuhua held a joint election headquarters establishment meeting with the Kuomintang’s candidate for Renai Township Mayor Jiang Zixin on the afternoon of the 29th, inviting Han Kuo-yu to be a heavyweight assistant speaker. Xu Shuhua and Han Kuo-yu have a deep friendship. This is the two of them once again publicly on the same stage after two years of disagreement, and all walks of life are paying attention. The storm event started at 2 pm, with about 500 chairs placed on site, which was half full at 1:30 pm. Many villagers were looking forward to seeing the style of Xu Shuhua and Han Kuo-yu. Han Kuo-yu made his final debut at 3 pm, with nearly 2,000 people pouring into the scene, and his popularity was overwhelming.
It is worth noting that Xu Shuhua not only made a generous preview of the fusion with Han Kuo-yu before the meeting, but also was happy to see Han Kuo-yu come to help. He gave a positive evaluation of Han's comeback to assist in the election, which is completely different from the attitude of selecting mayors in some counties and cities within the Kuomintang. Observations believe that it is mainly related to the long-term blue than green voter structure in Nantou County.
Recent candidate for the county magistrate of the Democratic Progressive Party Cai Peihui camp actively launched a negative offensive in order to reverse the election, including directly pointing out that Xu Shuhua's master's thesis is suspected of plagiarism, family has a gangster background, equity investment in eight major industries, suspected of embezzlement of public land, and suspected of bribery, etc., and launched an image destruction war against Xu Shuhua. Xu Shuhua's camp faces the negative offensive of the Green Camp, and has pressure to lose intermediate votes, so consolidating the pan-blue votes has become the top priority of this election battle.
Therefore, Xu Shuhua asked Han Kuo-yu to go high, which is of some degree of help to gather pan-blue votes. Although Han Kuo-yu won a total vote rate in Nantou 44.72%, losing 50.83% to Tsai Ing-wen, among the 13 townships and cities, the Green Camp lost one township compared to the 2016 "General Election". Moreover, the vote rate of Han Kuo-yu and Song Chuyu in most towns and cities is either higher than that of the Green Camp or not, so Han Kuo-yu still has some appeal in Nantou.
In addition, in 2020, the vote rate of 19 political parties in Nantou County was still the highest with the Kuomintang 39.9%, followed by the Democratic Progressive Party 30.9%, the Taiwan People's Party 9.9% and the "Foreign Power" 6.1%. The other political parties won the vote rate in Nantou County did not cross the 5% threshold, indicating that the political spectrum of Nantou County is still blue than green. To sum up, Xu Shuhua generously combines Han Kuo-yu, and his origins are his own. (Source: Hong Kong China Review News Agency)
