4 heads of basic organizations – Seoul Superintendent of Education elected
On the 15th, a day before the October 16 by-election, officials from the Geumjeong-gu Election Commission in Busan are installing and inspecting a vote counting station at the indoor gymnasium of Spo One Park Geumjeong Sports Park. Busan = News 1 The by-elections for the Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education, the Geumjeong-gu Office in Busan, the Ganghwa-gun mayor in Incheon, and the by-elections for Yeonggwang-gun and Gokseong-gun governors in Jeollanam-do will be held from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m. on the 16th. The ruling and opposition parties believe that the by-election for the Geumjeong-gu mayor and the Yeonggwang-gun re-election will be a battleground that will have an impact on the political situation, including the leadership of the ruling and opposition parties.
People Power Party representative Han Dong-hoon visited Geumjeong-gu, Busan on the 15th, the last day of the official election campaign, and campaigned. Representative Han met with reporters and emphasized the local worker theory, saying, “Re-elections and by-elections are about deciding who will improve the lives of local residents.” Representative Han said, “We will reform the party and government and do better.” In Geumjeong, the People Power Party is a strong conservative field, ahead of the Democratic Party by 13.25 percentage points in the last general election, but analysis is that a close race is expected as risks related to First Lady Kim Kun-hee continue. With the Democratic Party of Korea and the Fatherland Innovation Party succeeding in unifying their candidates at the last minute, it is predicted that if the People Power Party is defeated, the division over responsibility between the pro-Yoon (pro-Yoon Seok-yeol) and pro-Korean (pro-Han Dong-hoon) factions within the ruling party will accelerate, along with the theory of regime judgment. am.
Lee Jae-myeong, leader of the Democratic Party, who was unable to attend the final campaign due to the court trial schedule, attended the trial that day and again called for judgment on the regime, saying, “Please select faithful workers of the Democratic Party who will lead regional development against the incompetent and irresponsible regime’s neglect of the people’s livelihood.” If he loses in the Yeonggwang County mayoral election in which the three opposition parties, the Democratic Party, the Fatherland Innovation Party, and the Progressive Party, are closely competing, Representative Lee will also face a leadership crisis.
Busan Geumjeong confusion… Visiting Korea for the 6th time: “I will come again 60 times” Noh: “I look forward to the unification effect”
Today 10/16 re-election
The Busan Geumjeong-gu mayor by-election continues to be a major battle in which it is difficult to predict the winner or loser even on the 15th, a day before the October 16 by-election. Geumjeong-gu is an area where conservative support is traditionally strong, but with recent issues such as ‘Mrs. Kim Kun-hee’s risk’ irritating public sentiment, some say that even the ruling party cannot guarantee the results. The Democratic Party of Korea’s plan is that if it wins in Geumjeong-gu, a conservative stronghold, it can confirm the public sentiment against the Yoon Seok-yeol administration and at the same time stimulate the pro-Yoon (pro-Yoon Seok-yeol) faction’s ‘representative Han Dong-hoon’s responsibility theory’ and induce the ruling party to commit self-destruction.
Han Dong-hoon, representative of the People Power Party, visited Geumjeong-gu for a two-day, one-night stay and held his final support campaign. This is my 6th visit in a month. Representative Han said at the support rally that day, “We are sincere about Geumjeong. “It will be number 6, number 60, number 600, as many times as possible,” he emphasized. After visiting the Busan Geumjeong-gu branch of the Korean Senior Citizens’ Association, which was held privately prior to this, Representative Han said, “Even if you don’t take pictures, I will normalize Baptist Hospital, but I promised that I will do better if you take pictures.”
The fact that Democratic Party lawmaker Kim Young-bae said that this election, which is being held due to the illness and death of former Busan Geumjeong-gu mayor Kim Jae-yoon, was a “waste of taxpayers’ money,” is also considered a last-minute variable. Representative Han said, “It shows how the Democratic Party is trying to use the election.”
In the People Power Party, it is expected that if Geumjeong-gu is given over to the pro-Yoon group, the theory of Han Dong-hoon’s responsibility will also intensify. Rep. Han Yoon-gye said, “During the Geumjeong-gu mayor election process, Representative Han continued to bring up the issue of Ms. Kim and created a stir,” adding, “If Geumjeong-gu is handed over, he will have to show responsibility.”
The Democratic Party is calculating that it has a chance of winning in the Geumjeong-gu mayor election based on the results of its own opinion poll after unifying the opposition with the Democratic Party of Korea. Representative Lee Jae-myung is also working hard on the election, visiting Geumjeong-gu a total of four times. A party leadership official said, “There may be ‘shy conservative’ votes, but a favorable trend is being created in public opinion polls after the unification of the opposition parties.” A senior member of the Democratic Party said, “There were many opinions within the leadership that the party should strategically focus more on the Busan election than on the Yeonggwang-gun mayoral election in Jeollanam-do, where the situation is uncertain.”
