Taiwan Voters Throw China-Friendly Mayor Out of Office
台灣民眾對親中政客投下反對票

🇹🇼One of Taiwan’s most prominent China-friendly politicians was recalled as mayor of the self-ruled island’s third-largest city—the second electoral setback in five months for Taiwanese advocates of a more accommodating posture toward Beijing.
台灣最知名的親中政治人物之一，同時作為台灣第三大城高雄市長韓國瑜遭民眾罷免，這是五個月以來對韓國瑜及其他提倡對北京持更加包容態度的台灣人來說第二次的選舉挫敗。

-prominent: 著名的、重要的
-setback: 挫折、困境
-advocate: 提倡、倡導

🧑‍🦲The same man lost both times: The recalled mayor, Han Kuo-yu of the main opposition Nationalist Party, failed to unseat Taiwan’s incumbent leader, Tsai Ing-wen, in January’s presidential election. Now voters in the southern port city of Kaohsiung have passed a recall motion removing Mr. Han from office, according to Taiwan’s Central Election Commission.
輸了兩次的男人：遭罷免的韓國瑜市長隸屬台灣主要反對黨——國民黨，於今年一月的總統大選中沒能取代現任總統蔡英文。根據中選會發佈的消息，南台灣的港都市民們通過了高雄市長韓國瑜的罷免案。

-unseat: (尤指透過選舉)罷免、使下台
-incumbent: 現任的、在職的
-recall: 罷免、召回

🧑‍🦲Saturday’s result made Mr. Han the first municipal leader and the highest-ranking elected official to be recalled in Taiwan’s history—a dramatic reversal in fortunes: Less than two years ago he clinched the mayorship, toppling Ms. Tsai’s ruling party in its political heartland and paving the way for his presidential run.
一個戲劇性的轉折：不到兩年前韓國瑜推翻了執政黨的心臟地帶，取得高雄市長的職位，並為其競選總統鋪路。但週六的投票結果卻使韓國瑜成為台灣有史以來遭罷免的最高層級地方首長，

-municipal: 市政的
-reversal: 反轉、推翻
-clinch: 獲得，最終贏得
-topple: 使倒下，顛覆（政權）

罷免簡介：

憲法第17條規定：「人民有選舉、罷免、創制、複決之權」，第133條規定：「被選舉人得由原選舉區依法罷免之」，罷免係憲法賦予人民之基本政治權利。選舉權作用在於選賢與能，罷免權的設計，則期使民選公職人員能自我警惕，並具有監督及汰換不適任之民選公職人員的功能。透過選舉權與罷免權之行使，可使政治以民意為依歸，落實真正的民主政治。

Article 17 of the Constitution of the Republic of China (Taiwan) states, “The people shall have the right of election, recall, initiative and referendum,” and Article 133 states, “A person elected may, in accordance with law, be recalled by his constituency." Recall is a fundamental political right granted to the people by the ROC Constitution. The purpose of the right of election is to select the best and most capable, and the right of recall is designed to enable self-vigilance by elected officials and has the function of supervising and replacing unsuitable elected officials. Through the exercise of the right of election and the right to recall, politics can be based on public opinions and a truly democratic politics can be implemented.

我國現行公職人員罷免制度，除全國不分區及僑居國外國民立法委員不適用罷免規定外，民選公職人員罷免，均由原選舉區選舉人提議，提議人數應為原選舉區選舉人總數百分之一以上，並徵求連署，連署人數應為原選舉區選舉人總數百分之十以上，主管選舉委員會應為罷免案成立之宣告。但就職未滿一年，不得提出罷免。罷免案投票結果，有效同意票數多於不同意票數，且同意票數達原選舉區選舉人總數四分之一以上，即為通過。

Under the current system of recall of public officials in our country, except for the legislators of the national integrated election and the overseas election who shall not apply to the provisions of recall, the recall of elected public officials is proposed by the electors of the original constituency, and the number of proposers referred shall be not less than 1% of the total electors in the original constituency, and solicit joint signing. The number of signers shall be not less than 10% of the total electors in the original constituency. If the number of joint signers meets the prescribed quota, the proposal of recall shall be established by the election commission in charge. However, no proposal of recall can be filed against a civil servant who has not been in office for one full year. Among the valid ballots for recall, where the number of consenters is more than that of dissenters and achieves 1/4 of the total electors in the original constituency, the voting result of the recall is passed.
