(a) 楊淳卉, 初選若沒收 賴︰黨距離「惡」會非常近. Liberty Times, Apr 25, 2019 https://news.ltn.com.tw/news/politics/paper/1283999
("民進黨總統初選協調期延長，傳出黨主席卓榮泰可能因壓力大辭職、並由中常委「沒收初選」，前行政院長賴清德昨受訪指出，千萬不要走到這個地步，如果真的走到這個地步，「民進黨會離惡的距離非常近」，對台灣民主社會恐怕會是最黑暗的一天，希望大家遵循民主程序")
(b) 楊淳卉 and 施曉光, 民進黨5月底初選 不再延 國民黨納韓國瑜 期程未定. https://news.ltn.com.tw/news/focus/paper/1284051
("民進黨方面，中執會四月十日決議「初選機制不變、初選流程不變」原則下，延長總統初選協調時間，五月二十二日後再進行初選民調，但黨內有聲音主張等國民黨候選人出線後再來比民調。 對此， [民進黨秘書長] 羅文嘉表示，四月十日中執會做出決議，若任何人或團體要改變，都不適合，他也認為不宜、不能、也不要再延。如果再變，沒辦法對民進黨的基本價值和支持者交代。羅說，總統初選時程案下週三將送至中常會討論通過")
