New Taipei mayoral race launches set tone for Taiwan elections
Original: Frozen Garlic covers the campaign launches of the DPP and KMT candidates for mayor of New Taipei City The KMT's Hammer L
The blog Frozen Garlic has reviewed the campaign launches of the two main candidates for mayor of New Taipei City: KMT's Hammer Lee (李四川), a former deputy mayor of Taipei, and DPP legislator Su Chiao-hui (蘇巧慧). New Taipei is widely watched as a barometer of Taiwan's local elections, so the tone and organisation of each launch are being read as early signals of party momentum.
Why now: New Taipei is seen as a bellwether for Taiwan's local elections, drawing attention to how both major parties open their campaigns.
