At the end of the year, the Taipei mayoral election has attracted attention. A new poll shows that the Kuomintang’s Jiang Wan’an’s support is 28%, ahead of the DPP’s Chen Shizhong’s 26% and the People’s Party’s Huang Shanshan’s 25%, but the support of the three is quite close and within the margin of error.

In terms of optimism, Chen is ahead with 32%, Jiang is second with 26%, Huang is third with 15%, and 21% of voters have no opinion/undecided.

This result caused heated discussions. Netizens poured into “Zhongshi News Network” and “yahoo! Qimo” to leave messages, and the number of messages was regarding 100: “Chen Shizhong still has 26%? Impossible!” 26%? Lie to Xiao Ye”, “Taiwanese are indeed politically in command, they only look at ideology and not actual results”, “How many elderly people and children have left because of wrong epidemic prevention policies, and then he ran away to elect Taipei mayor. High opinion polls?” “Chen Shizhong firmly holds the basic teachings of the Green Camp, Jiang Wanan has to work hard, otherwise it is really dangerous”, “Chen Shizhong has been seen through and has nothing to say and only speaks sour words to please the green iron fans, Jiang responded on the one hand. But also come up with a policy!”
