TAIPEI (Taiwan News)—The New Power Party (NPP) on Wednesday (Nov. 13) announced a list of

its nominees for legislators-at-large, including the mother of the murdered child known as "Little Light Bulb” (小燈泡), according to a UDN report.

Under Taiwan's Constitution, only candidates for legislator-at-large from parties that exceed 5 percent of the party-list votes are represented in Taiwan's legislature.

The NPP finished nominating and ranking its candidates for legislator-at-large on Wednesday. Those at the top of the list have a higher chance of being selected by the proportional representation mechanism for the election of legislators from political parties.

According to NPP rules, legislator-at-large candidates will be voted for online by party members for the next three days, beginning on Thursday. Those receiving a simple majority vote will be officially approved, according to the media report.    [FULL  STORY]
