Chen also explained his national goal for the election saying "In the three-way election in 2000, I received 39 percent of the vote nationally. However, in the two-way race this time, we have to increase the national vote by at least ten percent to win the election, which means the people of Tainan must work hard to achieve that goal. Therefore, simply garnering half of the votes in Tainan is not enough."
