People’s Power Representative Lee Yong-ho voted to elect the hall leader on the 15th. As a result, the “Ho-Young Joo theory” was virtually canceled and the contest was held.
Representative Lee said in a press conference at the National Assembly: “Even in the current situation where the party is facing a severe crisis, only regressive remarks from the past are made, such as the idea of bringing the room leader back and forth. elect the party, “he said. Representative Lee, who belongs to the only ruling party in Honam, was confident that “Honam is a constituency and only by choosing me, who am practical and moderately conservative, will the power of the people give a new shock.” Re-elected legislator Lee, who had Namwon, Imsil and Sunchang as constituencies in Jeollabuk-do, joined people’s power in December last year by declaring his support for presidential candidate Yoon Seok-yeol. On the Presidential Transition Committee, he served as co-secretary of the “Dandelion Meeting” led by the Secretary of the Political Affairs and Judicial Administration Division and by Representative Chin Yun-gye.
Third-term lawmaker Park Dae-dae also told KBS: “I’m actually preparing myself. I think I’ll act on that part,” he said. Representative Jo Hae-jin also met with reporters at the National Assembly and said, “I wonder if we should fix things today.”
Additionally, four-term lawmakers Kim Hak-yong and Hong Moon-pyo and three-term lawmakers Yoon Jae-ok and Lee Jong-bae are considered candidates. One lawmaker predicted: “Mid-ranking lawmakers have been waiting for the possibility of Joo Ho-young’s election, but when Lee opens the door, the candidacy statements will follow one after another.” On the 16th the people’s power is announced and on the 17th the candidates are accepted, then on the 19th the general assembly of the National Assembly is held and elections are held.
When Rep Lee announced his candidacy, the “Ho-Young Joo theory” practically disappeared. However, the possibility of state legislators participating in the primary cannot be ruled out. Assemblyman Joo met reporters at the National Assembly and when asked if he would run for the primary, he avoided an immediate response, saying, “I’m looking at the whole situation.”
Meanwhile, fourth-term lawmaker Yoon Sang-hyeon, who opposed the establishment of the Emergency Response Committee, insisted on delaying the election of the room leader after the injunction application was finalized.
