Hoarse Lin Chia-lung Canvasses on 25th 林佳龍回防三蘆 率綠議員候選人拜票

On the day before the election, DPP New Taipei City mayor candidate Lin Chia-lung canvassed with his party's city councilor candidates in Sanchong and Luzhou, while his opponent, current Mayor Hou Yu-ih, greeted voters at a traditional market.

A hoarse Lin Chia-lung canvasses alongside city council candidates in New Taipei's Sanchong and Luzhou on the 25th. Lin, who is the DPP's candidate for New Taipei mayor, is confident the DPP will win the majority in the city council. His opponent, Mayor Hou Yu-ih, not only wants to win by a margin of 300,000 votes, but also wants a clean sweep of the city's 29 administrative districts. This means taking back Sanchong, Luzhou, Pinglin, Shiding and Gongliao.

Lin Chia-lung, New Taipei City Mayor Candidate (DPP): “They're already making excuses. First, they said they would win by a 400,000-vote margin. Then, they said they would use other benchmarks like the percentage of votes won. (He's) been mayor or deputy mayor for 12 years and has a huge budget. However, city administration never improved. In fact, it got worse.”

Hou Yu-ih, New Taipei City Mayor Candidate (KMT): “No matter where I am, I want to build infrastructure and reach out to every individual. I want New Taipei to be better. That's where I stand.”

Vendors and shoppers were thrilled when Hou visited a market on the 25th, with the market quickly swelling to capacity. Meanwhile, Enen's father called on the public to throw Hou out of office with their ballots.

Lin Chia-lung, New Taipei City Mayor Candidate (DPP): “Victims and their families -- let's take a look at them. We need to cast our votes to help Enen's father.”

Hou Yu-ih, New Taipei City Mayor Candidate (KMT): “I respect his opinion. Thank you.”

Both camps opted to hold their election eve rallies in Banqiao, at venues separated by just 300 meters. The area is also close to Christmasland. Aware this meant a high possibility of violence breaking out, the New Taipei police sent 800 officers to maintain order. Lin said he has faith the New Taipei City Government could handle the situation, while Hou said he has faith citizens can behave themselves.

聲音幾乎沙啞，仍把握每一次車掃跟選民互動，民進黨新北市長候選人林佳龍25日上午回防三重、蘆洲，率領市議員候選人們催票，談到選前最後一天，林佳龍以將士用命打選戰，有信心市議會席次過半，但對手侯友宜陣營目標不只大贏30萬票，還打算翻轉三重、蘆洲、坪林、石碇、貢寮5個行政區，寫下29區全勝紀錄。

民進黨新北市長候選人林佳龍說道：「他們好像在為可能開票開不好在找藉口，一下說要大贏我們40萬票，一下就是說用另外的指標，說要算雙邊的得票率。做了12年的市長、副市長預算加倍，但是市政不但沒有升格，還這個降級。」

國民黨新北市長候選人侯友宜指出：「不管是在哪個地方，我努力地拚建設，關懷每個人，讓新北市會更好，這是我的態度。」

侯友宜走訪市場，人氣爆棚，持續爭取選民支持。而新北選戰圍繞恩恩案，恩恩爸呼籲用選票淘汰不適任的侯友宜，是否出席林佳龍的選前之夜，林佳龍語帶保留。

民進黨新北市長候選人林佳龍表示：「不斷的傷害受害者跟他的家人，我覺得就這一點來講，我們應該出來投票，那幫忙恩恩爸爸。」

國民黨新北市長候選人侯友宜提及：「尊重，謝謝。」

藍綠陣營的選前之夜不約而同在板橋舉辦，地點間隔只有300公尺，晚會炒熱選情，卻也有衝突隱憂，加上離新北耶誕城不遠，新北市警局不敢大意，將動員800名警力維安。林佳龍表示，相信新北市府有能力處理，侯友宜則說，市民會用積極態度迎接選前之夜。
