The expression on the last day of the 3rd and 8th division cut-off
Kim Ki-hyeon “羅, political comrade for 20 years” Ahn Cheol-soo “Need a midfield command tower in the general election” Both sides objection to the report of’Kim cut-off 1st place’ 2.5 times higher than in 2021, the largest ever in the metropolitan area 38%… Prediction of votes is getting difficult
The electoral corps participating in the People’s Power 3/8 National Convention was confirmed to be about 840,000. The ratio of the metropolitan area (37.79%) and the Yeongnam area (39.67%) is similar, and the number of party members has increased significantly compared to the last convention, making it difficult to predict the outcome.
At the Emergency Response Committee meeting on the 9th, the power of the people voted on the electoral corps, which was counted as 839,569 as of the end of January. There are 8944 delegates, 786,783 responsible party members, and 43,842 ordinary party members. Compared to the 2021 June 11 National Convention (328,893 people) in which former CEO Lee Jun-seok was elected, it is 2.5 times.
By region, metropolitan areas such as Seoul, Incheon, and Gyeonggi accounted for 37.79%, Busan, Ulsan, and Gyeongnam (18.64%) and Daegu and Gyeongbuk (21.03%) and Yeongnam areas accounted for 39.67%. It is evaluated that it has become difficult to predict the votes of party members as they move away from the Yeongnam region-oriented party. A lawmaker from the Yeongnam area said, “It is difficult for the ‘organization table’ that lawmakers order and bring to the table to exert the same power as before,” but another lawmaker refuted, “In the end, active voters are traditional party members.”

On the last day of the preliminary primary (cutoff), Rep. Kim Ki-hyeon visited Seoul and Rep. Ahn Cheol-soo visited Chungcheong. Rep. Kim asked, “Former Congressman Na Gyeong-won’s expression is not bright, but did he forcefully draw support?” We promised to join hands together and join forces after Kim Ki-hyun was elected representative.”
Rep. Kim and former lawmaker Na took pictures with bright smiles at the ‘New People’s Heart National Convention’ that they met for the first time after solidarity. At this meeting, Rep. Kim said, “A representative like Na Kyung-won, who sacrificed to continue leading the orthodox conservative right wing and to create today’s people’s strength, should take the lead.” Let’s expand,” he said. Former lawmaker Na said, “I thought we should stick together after seeing the unprecedented impeachment of a State Council member in history,” and said, “Na Gyeong-won is an eternal party member.”
Rep. Ahn visited Chungcheong and spread the ‘midfield victory theory’. Rep. Ahn said at a party member meeting held at the Chungcheongbuk-do Party in Cheongju, Chungcheongbuk-do that day, “The reason our party fell to 115 seats in the last general election was because we eventually lost in the central area, the metropolitan area and Chungcheong.” ”he emphasized. He added, “In the general election next year, the midfield will be a fierce battleground, a battleground, and the forefront.”
Rep. Ahn’s side raised an official objection to the party’s election commission that day, saying, “A party official disclosed information that could affect the result at the time when the preliminary poll was not over.” This is a response to the report by ‘Pen and Mic’, an Internet media outlet, that ‘Kim Ki-hyun ranked first in a poll of party members, falling short of the majority’. Rep. Ahn pointed out, “Knowing the results of the current polls itself means that there are problems with the polls.”
The Kim Ki-hyeon camp also urged an investigation into the truth. Camp chief spokesman Si-gwan Kim said, “Some of the reports are raising suspicions as if they were related to Kim Ki-hyun. Our camp has nothing to do with it.” Rep. Kim said, “If it is true after finding out, and if there is responsibility, severe punishment must follow.”
