As voting for the Gangseo-gu mayor by-election was underway on the 11th, the Democratic Party of Korea appealed for support at the last minute, saying, “Please send a warning to the arrogant powers.” Hong Ik-pyo, floor leader of the Democratic Party, said at the Supreme Council meeting held at the National Assembly this morning, “The public sentiment that the Republic of Korea must be put back on track has gathered in Gangseo-gu,” and “Please send a warning to the arrogant powers.” Supreme Council member Jeong Cheong-rae said, “The early voting rate (for the Gangseo-gu mayor by-election) is 22.64%, and I think the high early voting rate means that the psychology of judging the regime has been activated and the explosion of public sentiment that the prosecutorial dictatorship cannot be tolerated like this.” “Please scold and judge the government that uses it carelessly,” he appealed. Supreme Council member Seo Young-kyo said, “The people should be allowed to release contaminated water from Fukushima (and suffer damage), the in-laws should be given the Yangpyeong Expressway, and the case of Corporal Amugae Chae should be judged by voting against the regime that intervened in the investigation and exerted external pressure.” The Democratic Party also demanded an apology at the party level for People Power Party candidate Kim Tae-woo’s ‘retaliatory judgment’ remarks. Floor Leader Hong said, “Candidate Kim is telling the Supreme Court (about his ruling) that it is a retaliatory ruling. “This is very wrong,” he said. “Does the People Power Party agree with Candidate Kim’s thoughts? “If you do not agree, we will issue a strong warning to candidate Kim and request a formal apology from the People Power Party,” he said. Previously, Candidate Kim’s camp commented on the 8th, “This election is an election to judge Kim Myung-soo’s ‘retaliation ruling’ on public interest informant by the Supreme Court.” Candidate Kim was sentenced to one year in prison and two suspended sentences by the Supreme Court for exposing the “suspicion of Cho Kuk’s investigation being silenced.” He claimed that the decision to receive the final verdict in 2018 was ‘retaliation from the Moon Jae-in administration.’ Regarding the fact that the National Intelligence Service announced the possibility of hacking the National Election Commission’s voting and vote counting system the previous day, floor leader Hong also said, “I don’t understand why the National Intelligence Service bothered to announce the details of the joint inspection completed on September 22 the day before the by-election. “It is impossible,” he criticized, adding, “Damaging the credibility of elections, the flower of democracy, is an act that endangers democracy.” He continued, “I wonder if the National Intelligence Service is once again unable to shake off its past habits and attempt to intervene in politics,” and added, “I strongly warn the government, the ruling party, and the National Intelligence Service. “Do not intervene in politics,” he added.
