Voters living in Japan vote for Democratic candidates in US presidential election March 8 17:29
Opposition and Democratic candidates were selected for the US presidential election. American voters living in Japan were voted abroad in Tokyo and elsewhere, and the visitors cast one vote for their favorite candidate.
In selecting Democratic candidates, voters living outside of the United States are also voting in 44 countries and regions. In Japan, polls were set up in three locations in Tokyo, Osaka and Nagoya on the 8th.
At the polling place in Shibuya-ku, Tokyo, a large number of people visited at the start of the noon voting and cast one vote for the candidate.
At the venue, countermeasures against the new coronavirus were taken, and the person in charge put on a mask and explained the voting rules etc.
Choosing Democrat candidates to regain power in the fall presidential election will be narrowed down to former Vice President Biden, who has rebounded on Tuesday's Super Tuesday, and Senator Sanders, a leftist, who will be on a good note. And
A 48-year-old man who works for a furniture store said, "I was worried to the end, but I voted for Mr. Biden. I think he is a candidate to put together the whole United States." A teacher woman said, "I voted for Mr. Sanders. I look forward to his victory because I feel that the United States needs a good medical insurance system like Japan."
"I want people to know that they can vote in Japan and have as many people vote as possible," said John Baumlin of the Democratic Party of Japan.
