The Kuomintang (KMT) also won in nine races, a gain of one from the previous elections. The People First Party (PFP), participating in its first elections since the party's formation last year, won two county commissioner races, while the nearly-defunct New Party counted itself fortunate to win in Kinmen County, thus maintaining one constituency in which to exercise its political philosophy. This was an excellent outcome.
民進黨總共贏得九縣市，失去三席；國民黨也贏得九席，較上屆扳回一城，親民黨初試啼聲即攻下兩城，幾近泡沫化的新黨則幸虧拿下金門，有一實質的根據地得以實施其政治理念。
