Has the People's Republic of China ever maintained a government-in-exile for Taiwan Province? All I can find with Google is pages that repeat our article's statement that there currently is no government-in-exile (or pages saying whether the ROC is a government-in-exile), but I can't find anything about past Communist governments-in-exile for the province.

China (s)elects people to represent Taiwan in its national legislature ( National People's Congress) and consultative congress ( Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference), and while they are supposed to represent Taiwan, they do not claim to govern the island.

I came across this 1917 issue of Volga German newspaper Der Kolonist. On page 2 there is a short article titled 'Das Ergebenis der Wahlen', which gives a partial result for the Samara electoral district (Russian Constituent Assembly election, 1917). It lists the results from 7 German colonies,
Colony | Number of eligible voters | List 1 (German socialists) | List 2 (Bolsheviks) | List 3 (SR) | List 6 (Mensheviks) | List 16 (German non-socialists) | Votes cast total |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Brabander (?) | 1528 | 459 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 8 | 481 |
Teller (?) | 1185 | 43 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 362 | 415 |
Daugerl (?) | 665 | 115 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 352 | 46* |
Stahl | 1182 | 209 | 2 | 4 | 1 | 481 | 708 |
Ruffus (?) | 1339 | 494 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 326 | 831 |
Lauwe (?) | 982 | 42 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 566 | 609 |
Zoft (?) | 866 | 532 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 118 | 65* |
So for the numbers, they work out with the totals 7,477 (eligible voters) and 4,163 (total votes cast), I'm ok apart from the last column of votes cast where I can't read properly. If anyone wants to make a better guess on the final numbers, appreciated.
What is the word after "Im ganzen..."? And for the last passages, my rough transcription from Faktur is "In bemerten ist, ba* in Lauwe und Ze*tmangel gar nicht und in Daugert fehr wenig fur die Liste 1 agitiert warben ist. In Teller word fur Nr. 1 agitiert, aber bort find felve Lehrer und der Pater hauffert allein. Bis grosser Freund der Saratower und al Feind der Sozialisten trat der "***" Peter Sinner auf. Er *chwarte die Sozialisten und gebrauchte bis allerma** Mittel, um das Volk *** zu fuhren. Bis jetzt find flogene Daten befann fue Nr 1 17530 Stimmen, fur Nr 16 13655 stimmen." - If anyone can help to correct my transcription errors, that would be much appreciated.
Furthermore, is it possible to identify the locations, correct their names, and any chance that there are wiki articles (here or in Russian or German wiki)? -- Soman ( talk) 14:01, 25 June 2023 (UTC)
Im ganzen Kreise von 7747 Stimmberechtigden beteiligten sich an den Wahlen nur 4163 (etwa 55 Prozent) und zwar für die Liste Nr. 1 — 1894, Nr. 2 — 4, Nr. 3 — 6, Nr. 4 — 5, Nr. 5 — 2, Nr. 6 — 1, Nr. 7 — 2, Nr. 10 — 3, Nr. 11 — 4, Nr. 16 — 2213, ungültig 29.
Zu bemerken ist, daß in Lauwe aus Zeitmangel gar nicht und in Bangert sehr wenig für die Liste Nr, 1 agitiert worden ist. In Teller ward für Nr. 1 agitiert, aber dort sind keine Lehrer und der Pater hausiert allein. Als großer Freund der Saratower und als Feind der Sozialisten trat der ,,Auchsozialist’’ Peter Sinner auf. Er schwärzte die Sozialisten und gebrauchte die allerschmutzigten Mittel, um das Volk irre zu führen.
Bis jetzt sind folgende Daten bekannt: für Nr. 1 — 17530 Stimmen, für Nr. 16 — 13655 Stimmen.
Many thanks Cookatoo.ergo.ZooM, Lambiam!! I see here [1], "Zum Kirchenspiel Kukkus gehörten neben Jost weitere vier Gemeinden – Kukkus (Wolskaja), Stahl (Stepnoje), Lauwe (Jablonowka) und Bangert (Saumorje). Die Kirchengänger der Gemeinde Kukkus (Wolskaja), die das Zentrum des Kirchenspiels war, waren reformierte.", meaning the 5 latter settlements were part of the Kukkus parish. On de.wiki, we find this [2], it seems 'Teller' would be 'Deller'. Brandander, Deller, Jost, Stahl am Tarlyk, Lauwe, Bangert all listed as 'belonging to Kukkus', but there are also other places 'beloning to Kukkus'. If you look on the map used on de.wiki (see thumb) all seven locations are located along a north-south line. Kukkus is Приволжское (Ровенский район) .
But I don't get exactly what is the 'Kreis', it doesn't seem to match parish or canton boundaries. Why end the count just north of Laub? Could it be the Russian-state recognized volost (as opposed to the German kirchenspiel?).-- Soman ( talk) 20:33, 25 June 2023 (UTC)
Looking at the numbers, I think the following is plausible. Lauwe must be 609, since it is the total of 42+1+566. Bangert needs to be 467, 468 or 469. This means Jost has to be 650, 651 or 652. It seems to look more like a zero than any other number.
