In the past, because of our special political situation, the legislators elected for the First Legislative Term [in 1947] did not get changed through selections, and although supplementary legislators were added to fill in the gap, this was not a normal situation for democratic politics.
過去我們因處於動員戡亂時期，第一屆立法委員不能改選，雖然加了增額立委來彌補，但總非民主政治的常態。
