[Reporter Wang Rongxiang/Kaohsiung Report] The campaign for the election of the chairman and deputy speaker of Gaoshi City is undercurrent. There are rumors in the local area that Blue and Green have started to operate. They actively seek the support of non-party members through various channels in private; Blue is not green, the election of the chairman and deputy speaker may go to the "second round" to decide the winner.

Gao City Council has a total of 65 seats. The election results included 29 seats for the KMT, 27 seats for the Democratic Progressive Party, and 9 seats for small parties and non-party parties. Neither the blue nor the green had more than half of the seats.

Although the green camp has fewer seats than the blue camp, with the addition of some members who are friendly with the green camp, the total number of seats can reach up to 32 seats, which is 29 seats better than the KMT. As long as one more member of the 4 non-party members is supported, the majority threshold can be reached .

Recently, it has been reported in the local area that blue and green have privately used channels to inquire or win the support of non-party congressmen. The non-party congressmen whose prices are soaring have not yet and are not in a hurry to express their views, which has given many associations to the outside world.

People in the parliament pointed out that in the first round of elections for the chairperson and deputy speaker, more than half of the seats must be obtained, and more than 33 seats are counted.

If several non-party congressmen follow the past practice of entering and exiting groups and voting unanimously, coupled with the position of maintaining an equidistant position with the blue and green, it is not ruled out that they will continue to remain neutral in the election of the chairman and deputy speaker, so it is very likely that the election of the chairman and deputy speaker Enter the second round according to the rules, and the player with the most people wins.

Parliamentarians believe that this model can maintain the stand of no party, no blue, and green, and also reduce friction with blue and green, thereby enhancing various possibilities and space for cooperation with blue and green.
