TAIPEI (TVBS News) — The latest presidential poll reveals that the Ko-Ying ticket of the Taiwan People's Party(TPP) is set to secure between 2.535 million to 2.726 million votes, numbers which My Formosa Chairman Wu Tzu-chia described on Saturday (Dec. 9) as "terrifying".
During My Formosa's "Wudong Show," Wu projected the Lai-Hsiao ticket of the Democratic Progressive Party(DPP) could receive a vote share of 40.6 percent to 42.7 percent, translating to 5.534 million to 5.820 million votes. Meanwhile, the Hou-Kang ticket of the Kuomintang(KMT) is estimated to garner 38.6% to 39.6% of the vote, amounting to 5.261 million to 5.398 million votes.
The Ko-Ying ticket is expected to achieve a vote percentage of 18.6% to 20.0%. Wu pointed out that TPP's presidential candidate Ko Wen-je holds nearly 3 million votes, a figure capable of dictating the election's outcome.
After launching the "KP Show," Ko's popularity surged significantly, dragging DPP candidate Lai Ching-te's polling numbers down nearly two percentage points from 40%.
Wu acknowledged the shift in young voters, with many not flocking to the KMT but instead aligning with Ko Wen-je, whose 2.5 percentage point increase he deemed“remarkable."
