Notes: The Kuomintang won 81 of the 113 seats in the Legislative Yuan with 58.45 percent of the votes cast. Though
the Democratic Progressive Party won 41.55 percent of the votes, it garnered only 27 seats. Ma Ying-jeou was
the Kuomintang standard bearer, with Vincent Siew as his running mate. They were pitted against Frank Hsieh
and Su Tseng-chang. Ma won a landslide victory.
A further analysis led to the following findings:
-- In the ten counties and cities where voter support
rates in the legislative elections for the Kuomintang
were higher than its nationwide support average of
53.48 percent, their corresponding rates for the referendum
voting were lower than the nationwide average
