Instead they were using the old multi-member system where the top three vote getters in the two catagories win.<BR/><BR/>Peng/Jin/Ma complaints make sense on a rational level, but politically you can't complain about giving each county at least some of its own representation.阿牛https://www.blogger.com/profile/08403972286057197709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3444895069543408811.post-2526546604577353582008-01-28T13:14:00.000+08:002008-01-28T13:14:00.000+08:00I think the gerrymander can really only be applied...I think the gerrymander can really only be applied to the three seats for the outlying islands (Penghu, Jinmen and Mazu) and the six reserved seats for indigenous people. These all went to the KMT or parties/people with close links to the KMT. Given the relatively small size of these constituencies they do give the KMT an unfair advantage. <BR/><BR/>However, even if these seats were to be split 50/50 between the KMT and the DPP, the KMT would still have a dominant position in the legislature.Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13061413827755873948noreply@blogger.com
