In 2024, the Kuomintang (KMT) announced it would ‘step aside’ and not field a candidate against incumbent Hsinchu Mayor Kao Hung-an in the upcoming mayoral election—a move that has drawn significant attention. Kao, originally a member of the Taiwan People’s Party (TPP), was elected as Hsinchu’s first female mayor in 2022. Despite facing political pressure due to ongoing legal investigations, the KMT decided against nominating its own candidate, opting instead for a gesture of political courtesy. This decision is widely seen as an extension of the so-called ‘blue-white cooperation’—a strategic alliance between the KMT and the TPP—at the local level, reflecting broader opposition efforts to consolidate resources and challenge the ruling Democratic Progressive Party (DPP). However, the move has sparked internal debate within the KMT, with some grassroots members expressing concern that it could blur party identity and undermine the KMT’s long-term presence in Hsinchu. Overall, the KMT’s decision underscores its pragmatic political calculus and introduces new dynamics into Taiwan’s local political landscape following the 2024 elections.
2024年，中国国民党宣布在新竹市长选举中礼让现任市长高虹安，这一决定引发广泛关注。高虹安原为台湾民众党籍，于2022年当选新竹市长，成为该市首位女性市长。尽管她近期因涉入司法案件而面临政治压力，但国民党基于地方稳定与选情考量，决定不提名自己的候选人与其竞争，转而采取‘礼让’策略。此举被视为蓝白合作（国民党与民众党）在地方层级的延续，也反映出在野阵营试图整合资源、共同对抗民进党的战略意图。不过，此决定在国民党内部也引发部分争议，有基层党员担忧此举可能模糊政党界线，削弱国民党在新竹的长期布局。总体而言，国民党的礼让决策不仅体现其务实的政治考量，也为2024年后台湾地方政治格局带来新的变数。
