DPP candidate Wu Yinong narrowly lost to KMT candidate Wang Hongwei; Actively deal with the cabinet reshuffle, voter disappointment, etc., and then mishandled and insufficiently explained issues such as resuming military service for one year and paying taxes to the people, so that it was impossible to quell the people's distrust and incomprehension of the ruling party, which became the cause of Wu Yinong's defeat. The burden of the big environment.

Xu Shuhua pointed out that Wu Yinong was preparing for the battle with all his strength, and in the end he lost only a small amount to his opponent in the constituency structure where the blue was bigger than the green.

Xu Shuhua believes that the ruling party's discussion of restoring military service to one year is insufficient, and the lack of dialogue with young people or the parents of draftees has caused the loss of youth votes, and then dealt with the issue of tax repayment to the people. After the tax debt is paid off, the general distribution of red envelopes gives the KMT room to manipulate issues, making the public mistakenly believe that the government has not handled the tax properly, and deepening their misunderstanding of the DPP. This is the responsibility of the cabinet team to review.

As for Wang Hongwei's running in the election, the "running away" controversy did not affect the election situation. Xu Shuhua said that the current KMT creates an atmosphere of hatred and calls on supporters to bring down the DPP as the only demand. Support the "warriors" who may defeat the DPP. From the results of this election, it can be seen that the main theme of the next 2024 election will still be to bring down the DPP.
