Results for the Taiwan presidential election, as near as I can tell:

%     candidate            party
---------------------------------------------
39.4   Chen Shui-bian     Democratic Progressive
37.2   James Soong        Independent (former Nationalist)
23.4   Lien Chan          Nationalist
----------------------------------------------

The Democratic Progressive party was described as pro-independence.

This is the first time a non-Nationalist has won.  It seems obvious that
the two losing candidates split the Nationalist vote.  Any non-FPP
system would likely have produced a different result.
