Claim:
1. A display device comprising: a first insulation substrate; gate lines disposed on the first insulation substrate to transmit a gate signal; data lines crossing and insulated from the gate lines to transmit a data voltage; a first switching elements and a second switching elements each connected to a corresponding gate line of the gate lines and a corresponding data line of the data lines; a dividing switching elements each connected to a corresponding gate line of the gate lines, a corresponding second switching element of the second switching elements, and a corresponding reference voltage line of reference voltage lines; pixel electrodes each including a first subpixel electrode and a second subpixel electrode, the first subpixel electrode being connected to a corresponding first switching element of the first switching elements, and the second pixel electrode being connected to a corresponding second switching element of the second switching elements and a corresponding dividing switching element of the dividing switching elements, wherein a reference voltage applied to the dividing switching element from the reference voltage lines varies according to polarities of the data voltage with respect to the common voltage, wherein the first subpixel electrode and the second subpixel electrode respectively comprise a cross-shaped stem portion and a fine branch portion extending from the cross-shaped stem portion, and wherein each of the reference voltage lines includes two vertical portions and a connection portion connecting the two vertical portions and the two vertical portions overlap the cross-shaped stem portions of the first subpixel electrode and the second subpixel electrode, respectively.
