Discussion for "Japan general election, 2003".

Huh? -- Taku

Sorry -- just filler since the page was blank. JCB 07:54, 7 Nov 2003 (UTC)

Added few sentences criticizing DPJ. It's only fair that both side get criticized, isn't it? Revth 08:09, 1 Mar 2004 (UTC)

Data Problems[edit]

I have noticed a number of data problems in tables. In particular, the numbers in parenthesis (indicating the results of the previous election) DON'T match the numbers on other wikipedia pages. For example, according to the wikipedia entry for 2000, LDP won 239 seats. The number quoted here is 247 in the first table and 239 in the 'raw' table at the bottom. According to the Inter-Parliamentary Union, the correct number is 239 I don't want to ammend anything without fully understanding the reasons behind it. Which source was used here?? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 212.219.136.58 (talk) 18:44, 13 February 2007 (UTC).[reply]
