James Soong
Party chair Hsu Hsin-ying switched party affiliations from the Kuomintang to the Minkuotang midway through her term as Hsinchu County legislator. She ran for reelection in the 2016 legislative elections, but quit the race when People First Party chair James Soong chose her to be his vice presidential candidate. The MKT fielded four total candidates in the 2016 elections, and failed to win a seat.
