According to the latest poll published by Taiwan's Formosa Daily, the dissatisfaction rate of the People's Party has reached 65.3%, the highest since the party was founded in 2019. Media person Zhang Yuxuan believes that the chairman of the People's Party, Ko Wen-je, has no intention of participating in the 2028 "general election". The only thing he is praying for now is to be able to end all the judicial cases and leave the party safely.

Ko Wen-je's fake account storm continues to burn. According to the latest poll released by Formosa Boulevard on the 26th, the dissatisfaction rate of the People's Party has reached 65.3%, the highest since the party was founded in 2019. It is worth noting that the poll also shows that people aged 20 to 29 have a higher dislike for the People's Party than a favorable impression (45.6% vs. 38.3%), and the situation is even more obvious among people aged 30 to 39 (58.7% dislike, 28.2% favorable), indicating that the loss of "small grass" (young supporters of the People's Party) is quite serious.

In response to this, Zhang Yuxuan said on the 26th on China Television's "Big News Big News" that according to this poll, Ko Wen-je can't even be elected as a village head or a township representative, and no one believes what Ko Wen-je says. He believes that the People's Party cannot be elected as a county or city head, and Ko Wen-je has no plans to run in 2028. The only thing he prays for now is to be able to end all judicial cases, leave the casino safely, and live a carefree life with his own money.

In addition, Taipei City Councilor Lin Zhenyu of the People's Party said yesterday that many supporters of the People's Party are indeed disappointed in recent days. She also pointed out the two major mistakes the party made in this incident on a political talk show.

Lin Zhenyu pointed out on the 25th that from the outbreak of the accounting dispute to the present, the People's Party has indeed done a poor job and made two major mistakes: First, Ko Wen-je has always given people the image of being stingy and frugal, but why did he act so cheaply when there were as many as 100,000 political donations during the election? Logically, he should have hired a professional team instead of just leaving it to the CFO to handle.

Second, the People's Party still has a lot of room for improvement in its crisis management capabilities. It is not enough to simply say "the money did not fall into anyone's pocket" to explain it clearly. The People's Party should spend more time and effort to let supporters know the entire issue of political donations, and face and improve the problems of miscalculation and underreporting.
