"The biggest concern for the Blue Camp right now is not the voters, but the candidates from various counties and cities who are preparing to run for office," said Taiwanese media figure Wei An on a social platform. He stated that they must complete the "exodus" by the end of June in order to save themselves, quickly cut ties with the Kuomintang (KMT) and Zheng Liwen's negative image, otherwise the overall election situation might be dragged down together.
Regarding some people criticizing the "Beautiful Island" poll as inaccurate, Wei An refuted this, stating that among all polling institutions in Taiwan, "Beautiful Island Electronic Newspaper" is the one most frequently referenced. After long-term comparison with previous elections, the trend consistency with the final voting results is very high. The real value of polls is not to make people happy, but to let people see where the problems are. The changes in the New Taipei City poll from January to March are an important warning signal.
Wei An concluded by saying that elections have never been about personal preferences of you, me, or the voters, but rather about the overall political atmosphere and the structure of public opinion support among parties in the island. The change in the New Taipei City poll we see now is just the first warning signal.
