On this elections, two hundred and twenty-five members of the Fourth Legislative Yuan were elected. The outcome of the 1998 elections is that the Chinese Nationalist Party (the KMT) has made significant gains, holding for instance a comfortable majority in the National Legislature - winning 123 seats of the total 225 seats. It marks the halting of the downward trend of popular support over recent years for the Chinese Nationalist Party, including its electoral showing in legislative elections. In the previous national legislature election of 1995, KMT won only 85 seats out of the total 164 seats, a very marginal majority, with 46% KMT votes Vs 33% DPP votes, the main opposition political party.
