Chang Cheng-hsiung

Chang Cheng-hsiung (Chinese: 張政雄; born 24 November 1941) is a Taiwanese lawyer who chaired the Central Election Commission from 2004 to 2009.

Prior to his appointment as chair of the Central Election Commission, Chang had practiced law for 37 years.

[4] The 2008 Taiwanese transitional justice referendum was scheduled for the same date, and local governments affiliated with the Pan-Blue Coalition announced that voters within their jurisdiction would use two-step voting, in which legislative ballots and referendum ballots were obtained and cast separately, instead of one-step voting mandated by the Central Election Commission, in which voters would receive and cast legislative and referendum ballots at the same time.

Chang spoke out against the Kuomintang's decision, and stated that ballots cast via two-step voting would be ruled invalid.

[5][6] Chang later stated in December 2007 that voters could receive ballots separately if, during the voting process, they did not leave the polling place.
