Taiwanese local elections are scheduled to be held on November 28, 2026. This market will resolve according to the candidate who becomes the next Mayor of Taoyuan as a result of this election. Temporary, interim, or placeholder Mayors 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/).Incumbent KMT Mayor Chang San-cheng holds an overwhelming advantage in the November 28, 2026, Taoyuan mayoral race due to sustained personal popularity, with approval ratings near 62 percent in mid-2026 surveys, and a decisive renomination by his party. Recent polling from late 2025 showed him leading prospective DPP opponents by roughly 40 points across demographics, reflecting the structural benefits of incumbency in a special municipality. The DPP formalized Huang Shih-chieh as its challenger in April 2026 after his prior legislative service and brief role as deputy justice minister, yet the matchup remains constrained by lingering local damage to the DPP brand from earlier corruption cases. Low probabilities for other figures, including Perng Shaw-jiin, align with the absence of viable alternative candidacies or late shifts in voter sentiment ahead of candidate registration.
