2004年8月23日,《全国人民代表大会和地方各级人民代表大会选举法》(以下简称“选举法”)修正案草案正式提交十届全国人大常委会第十一次会议审议。1979年出台的现行选举法继1982年、1986年、1995年先后3次修改后,正式迈开了第四次修改的步伐。近年来,要求改革选举制度的社会呼声日益高涨,有识之士也提出了诸多的改革思路。虽然出于稳步发展民主政治的考虑,此次选举法修正草案只是一个谨慎的小改方案,仅仅提出了4条修改建议,但其意义却不容小觑。其中,将预选程序引入直接选举的改革思路,由于直指选举实践中的“暗箱操作”等弊端,尤其值得关注。
On August 23, 2004, the draft amendment to the “Electoral Law of the National People’s Congress and the Local People’s Congresses at various levels” (hereinafter referred to as the “Election Law”) was formally submitted to the Eleventh National People’s Congress for consideration. The current election law, introduced in 1979, formally opened the fourth revision after three amendments in 1982, 1986 and 1995. In recent years, the social appeal for reforming the electoral system has been on the rise. Many people of insight have also come up with a great deal of reform ideas. Although for the sake of steadily developing democratic politics, the draft amendment to the Electoral Law is only a cautious and small reform proposal, with only four amendments proposed, but its significance can not be underestimated. Among them, the introduction of the pre-selection process into the direct election reform ideas, as directed at the election practice “black box operation ” and other shortcomings, of particular concern.
