Taiwanese local elections are scheduled to be held on November 28, 2026. This market will resolve according to the candidate who becomes the next Magistrate of Taitung County as a result of this election. Temporary, interim, or placeholder Magistrates appointed before the election will not be considered. If the result of this election isn't known, or no candidate has been elected, by June 30, 2027, 11:59 PM ET, the market will resolve to "Other". This market will resolve based on the results of the elections as indicated by a consensus of credible reporting. If there is ambiguity, this market will resolve based solely on the official results as reported by the Taiwanese government, specifically the Central Election Commission (https://db.cec.gov.tw/).Wu Hsiu-hua, the Kuomintang nominee and current Taitung County Council Speaker, leads the market at 86.5% implied probability for the November 28, 2026, magistrate election, reflecting the county’s longstanding KMT structural advantage and the party’s nomination to succeed term-limited incumbent Yao Ching-ling. Chen Ying, the Democratic Progressive Party legislator of Puyuma indigenous heritage, trails at 14%, while independent Li Wu Ying-chih sits near 0.1%. Taitung has never elected a DPP magistrate, and recent polling plus voter patterns in legislative and presidential races reinforce the KMT edge despite Chen Ying’s local networks and indigenous voter outreach. Candidate registration opens in late August with no major shifts reported since the December 2025 KMT and October 2025 DPP nominations; trader consensus prices the historical baseline and limited momentum for opposition consolidation.
