The mayoral elections include Taipei City, Taipei County, Taichung, Tainam and Kaohsiung. The campaign will cover a number of TVCs across various channels and is supported by radio promotions until the end of this month.

Both agencies won the nation-wide media assignment earlier this summer. 

According to a source close to the news, “President Ma Ying-jeuo of KMT was elected two years ago, similar to President Obama in the US. It’s like mid-term exam for them. The five mega city mayoral election is very special this year becuase the KMT and DDP (the Green Camp) votes are very close in Taipei.”
