Political career
Chiang was elected to the Taipei City Council in 1981 and served until 2009. After Diane Lee resigned her legislative seat in January 2009, Chiang won a four-way primary held on 8 February to represent the Kuomintang in the resulting by-election. He subsequently defeated six other candidates in the by-election held on 28 March.
The Democratic Progressive Party nominated retired baseball player George Chao to run against Chiang in 2012. During his 2016 campaign, Chiang was first opposed by Freddy Lim, a member of the New Power Party, who soon ceded the race to fellow candidate Fan Yun of the Social Democratic Party. Chiang easily defeated Fan and Minkuotang candidate Wu Hsu-chih.
