据十一届全国人大三次会议大会发言人李肇星介绍,会议期间将重点审议全国人大常委会关于提请审议《选举法修正案(草案)》的议案,并指出选举法修正案草案规定的城乡按相同人口比例选举人大代表,将更好地实现人人平等、地区平等、民族平等的原则。
请看《中国日报》的报道:
The draft amendment to the Electoral Law has proposed equal electoral rights for urban and rural citizens, which, if passed, will "expand people's democracy and safeguard their rights to be the masters of their own destiny", Li Zhaoxing, spokesman for the third session of the 11th NPC, told reporters at a press conference on Thursday.
十一届全国人大三次会议发言人李肇星上周四在记者发布会上表示,《选举法修正案(草案)》提出城乡居民应享有相同的选举权。该修正案通过后将“扩大人民民主,保障人民当家作主的权利”。
文中的amendment to the Electoral Law就是指“选举法修正案”,而draft amendment就是指“修正案草案”。此次《选举法》修改,一个重点就是城乡拟按相同人口比例选举人大代表,并且享有相同的electoral rights(选举权)。城乡居民选举将有望实现equal representation(同票同权)。
Amendment在这里指“修正案”,例如First Amendment就常用来指“美国宪法第一修正案”,而draft在这里则表示“草案”。此外,draft还常用来指“征兵,选拔”,例如:John was drafted into the Army last year. (约翰去年被应征入伍。)
