according to the "2026 kaohsiung mayor possible candidate poll" released by tvbs on the 11th, the five dpp legislators lin daihua, lai ruilong, xu zhijie, chiu yiying, and taiwan's former labor department director xu mingchun, no matter who they send to run for kaohsiung mayor, their support will be inferior to kmt legislator ko chien. in this regard, media person chen fengxin said that in addition to ko chien's excellent personal qualifications, this poll reflects the "ko wen-je phenomenon". ko chien has always been on the side that believes that the judiciary is unfavorable to ko wen-je, and the backlash will be reflected in the poll, which is a warning to the dpp.

regarding the latest poll showing that ko chien-yen won over five democratic progressive party candidates, chen feng-hsin said on the 12th that she was shocked when she saw the poll results because lin dai-hua, lai rui-lung, hsu chi-chieh, and chiu yi-ying have all been operating in the local area for a long time, more than 10 to 20 years.

chen fengxin analyzed that there are several factors that led to ko chien-en's lead. the first is that she has a doctorate degree and graduated from a prestigious university, so her conditions and qualities in all aspects are very good. the second reason is that ko chien-en is willing to manage kaohsiung. kaohsiung people hate others who "get their hands dirty" the most. han kuo-yu offended kaohsiung people in this regard, but ko showed that "i just want to be in this place, i am a girl from the southern part of the country." in addition, the pingtung hometown association in kaohsiung is very powerful, and ko chien-en, as the daughter of the former pingtung county magistrate ko wen-fu, still has a little geographical advantage.

however, chen fengxin changed the subject and pointed out that the poll reflected the "ko wen-je phenomenon." of course, some people were disappointed with ko wen-je during the case handling process, but there were also many people who backlashed against what the judiciary did to ko. ko chien-en has always been on the side that believes that the judiciary is unfavorable to ko wen-je, and the backlash sentiment is reflected in it, so ko chien-en attracted some votes from the white camp.

chen fengxin said that considering the kmt's popularity in kaohsiung, she was surprised that the support rate reached 40%. the dpp should be wary that this is probably a backlash in the ko wen-je case and should not be underestimated. poll data also shows that young people have a high level of support for ko chien-en, but there is still a long time before the mayoral election and a lot of things will happen.

regarding this issue, dpp legislator zhong jiabin believes that ko chien-en has had good reviews since the 9th legislature. no matter who the dpp nominates for the election, ko chien-en is not an opponent who can be taken lightly. in addition, from the perspective of the electoral system, it will be difficult for the incumbent legislators of the "six major cities" to compete against the incumbents or those who have run for mayor, because someone like ko chien-en has at least been seen once on the ballot by kaohsiung citizens, and the dpp legislators may not necessarily have an advantage in terms of name recognition.

media person huang wei-han also said on the 12th that when the ko wen-je case came out recently, the supporters of the people's party also numbered over 20 percent. they were dissatisfied with the current dpp government. since the blue and white parties were united, they tended to support one person, so they came to ko chien-en's side. therefore, ko chien-en's poll numbers surged. in addition, ko chien-en speaks fluent minnan dialect. she grew up in southern taiwan. she is friendly and did not leave after losing the election. therefore, ko chien-en's poll numbers suddenly boosted the morale of the kmt. ko chien-en has already won the polls in kaohsiung.
