Chou Chun-mi maintains a commanding lead in the Pingtung County Magistrate race due to her incumbency advantage as the Democratic Progressive Party officeholder since 2022 and the county’s established voter patterns favoring the party in local contests. Recent campaign milestones, including her October headquarters launch rally backed by President Lai Ching-te and allied mayors, along with policy emphasis on agricultural innovation, tourism infrastructure, and local senior health measures, have reinforced trader assessments of her position ahead of the November 28 vote. Su Ching-chuan, the Kuomintang challenger in this rematch, has focused on infrastructure and economic revitalization but trails significantly in market pricing. Late developments such as unexpected turnout shifts in key districts or major external events could still narrow the margin before election day.
