Lam Yi-wah was exempted from the by-election and the blue camp was dissatisfied with "Is there no one else?"

[Reporter Yang Xinhui/Taipei Report] KMT legislator Lin Yihua is expected to take up the post of vice mayor of Taipei in February next year. The remaining term of the legislator is less than one year and there is no need for by-election.

Taipei City Council KMT Secretary-General Qin Huizhu criticized that many KMT members had objections to this practice, and called on Lin Yihua to resign immediately and take office immediately, and let the Daan District Legislature be re-elected, otherwise it will be a deduction for Lin Yihua and the KMT. Speaking these words from the perspective of being good for the Kuomintang, we cannot let the outside world think that the Kuomintang has fallen into the arrogance of being in power as soon as it came to power!"

Lin Yihua's extension to take over as deputy mayor in February next year caused the party to question, "Is there no one left in the Kuomintang?" Wang Hongwei, a by-election candidate for the Legislative Council of the Kuomintang's third constituency district in Taipei, said this morning that "I didn't hear such noise", but Qin Huizhu took the lead in calling out , asked Lin Yihua to resign immediately. She said in an interview that the Kuomintang's approach obviously did not communicate with the congressmen, and the decision-making process could not win the support and understanding of the majority of people, including voters and Kuomintang congressmen.

Qin Huizhu said, we just scolded the DPP for not having the arrogance of being in power. Now that the Kuomintang has just elected the mayor, it has changed to do whatever it wants. For the KMT, those who do not support it account for the majority, and the handling is not thorough enough, and the KMT loses points, "I really think Lin Yihua should resign immediately and take office immediately, so that this constituency will have a by-election, otherwise this matter will be harmful to Lin Yihua personally and The Kuomintang is minus points."

As for why it will be postponed until February next year, Qin Huizhu analyzed that it may be that many MPs want to grab the seat of the legislator before taking office. Wang Hongwei has already fought another election campaign, and Daan and Wenshan District have fought again. The city party department may not have time to take care of and be unable to cope with multiple election campaigns.

She believes that the Kuomintang must have a lot of considerations before making a decision, but it would be great if this decision is a bonus, but for the Kuomintang, this decision will be caught by the DPP, and it will be a deduction from the current point of view. .
