Singer Hsieh He-hsien announced his candidacy for Taipei City Councilors, but was denied registration by the Central Election Commission for committing a drug case that has not yet been completed. In this regard, at 9 am on the 18th, Xie Hexian, accompanied by his pregnant wife Liya, went to the Taipei High Administrative Court with the lawyer Su Huanzhi, candidate for mayor of Taipei, to present a petition against the Committee Central Electoral Committee for a leave and went to the Central Election Commission to investigate the matter and filed a petition in case of disqualification from running for Taipei City Council.

When Xie Hexian arrived, he held the hand of his pregnant wife Leia tightly, and it could be seen that Leia’s pregnant belly was not small. When the media began to visit, Liya silently stepped aside with the staff, and until she left, she slowly walked over to Xie Hexian’s side and got into a taxi together.
On the 14th, the Central Election Committee reviewed and approved the candidacy of mayors, city councilors, county mayors and county and city councilors in 2022. In the part of the county and city councilors, 4 people did not meet the requirements and were disqualified from enrollment as candidates, including Xie Hexian.
The reason for the election meeting is that on June 23, the New Taipei District Court sentenced Xie Hexian to four months of fixed-term imprisonment for violating drug risk prevention regulations, and he was fined. Xie Hexian has not yet completed the execution, therefore, according to the provisions of the Election and Recall Law of the Civil Service, he cannot be registered as a candidate.
In this regard, Su Huanzhi believes that the prosecutor agreed with Xie Hexian to pay the transaction section fine in three installments, but did not tell Xie Hexian that he could have paid all at once, so it can be corrected. Also, when the Central Election Committee held a review meeting, there were unfavorable issues for Xie Hexian. According to the Administrative Procedure Act, Xie Hexian should be advised to attend the presentation and retrieve the completed part of Xie Hexian.
Xie Hexian said he was in a calm mood and hoped to be able to resume his candidacy. He still believed that Taiwan was a great country. She hoped she could grow up happily in this land and that her next generation of hers, her very herself is true to her daughter of hers; when he heard the news that his candidacy had been canceled, Xie Hexian said, his first thought was, “Wow, it turns out this is politics, it turns out there will be this day, I’m still too naive, the government of the city is not deep enough, haha Them “, but did not disapprove of the elections.
