Democratic Progressive Party electoral team 結果共2筆

Speculations of a planned alliance within the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) for the 2024 presidential election are increasing. Rumors suggest that DPP presidential candidate Lai Ching-te may team up with Taiwan’s representative to the U.S., Hsiao Bi-khim, as a potential matchup against non-ruling parties. These rumors gained traction after it was discovered that renovation work was being done on a conference room in the DPP central committee’s building, allegedly to accommodate Hsiao’s campaign needs as Lai’s rumored running mate. Further speculations arose that Hung Yao-fu, a prominent figure in mobilizing young social activists and appointees for the DPP’s past electoral successes, may return to Taiwan to assist Hsiao’s campaign. However, a seasoned party staffer dismissed these rumors, stating that the running mate’s campaign strategy would be dependent on the presidential candidate. The candidate’s team for the vice presidency is mainly responsible for routine administrative work. Hsu Chia-hua, a former director of Hsiao’s legislative office, is also considered among the potential campaign members for Lai’s running mate, despite currently being abroad.

The Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) is set to announce its electoral team pairing Lai Ching-te and Representative to the United States Hsiao Bi-khim for the 2024 election. Hsiao, who has a strong connection with Hualien due to her previous work and local election runs, will travel to Hualien for a campaign rally and the establishment of the campaign headquarters. Hsiao’s office is undergoing urgent renovations, indicating a flurry of activity. Many legislative candidates have expressed interest in having Hsiao endorse their campaigns, leading to numerous inquiries to the DPP’s Central Executive Committee and campaign headquarters.
