By Ann Maxon / Staff reporterThe campaign office of Kaohsiung Mayor Han Kuo-yu (韓國瑜), the Chinese Nationalist Party (KMT) presidential candidate, yesterday said that it is confident about winning next month’s presidential election, despite Han trailing by nearly 38 percentage points in the latest poll. Based on his interaction with voters, it is apparent that Han has many “hidden” supporters, she said. As a result, Han’s campaign office thought it might as well urge supporters to claim to support Tsai just to make the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) happy, Lee said. Asked about Lee’s remarks, Tsai said that although Han’s camp claims not to believe in polls, it often cites them. While polls show the DPP leading, she and her campaign team would continue to work hard to secure the public’s support, she said.
