Tokyo Governor Election Adjusted to support Governor Koike of LDP Headquarters March 24 7:54

With regard to the Tokyo governor's election in July, the Liberal Democratic Party headquarters will discuss the response with the Tokyo Metropolitan Government, a party that has been in conflict with Governor Koike, on April 24, with the intention of adjusting to support Governor Koike.

The Liberal Democratic Party secretary-general, Second Floor Secretary-General will meet with the party's Tokyo Metropolitan Government secretary-general, Naoki Takashima on 24th to discuss the response to the governor's election in Tokyo, which will be voted on July 5.

The Liberal Democratic Party headquarters said that if Governor Koike ran, it would be difficult to find a rival candidate, and that `` it should be cooperated with the spread of the new coronavirus and considering the postponement of the Tokyo Olympics and Paralympics. '' I want to make adjustments in a direction that supports Governor Koike.

On the other hand, while the Liberal Democratic Party, which has been in opposition since the Tokyo governor's election four years ago, has been strongly opposed to Governor Koike, "there is no choice but to accept requests from the party headquarters." Some observers will eventually endorse the support of Governor Koike.

A committee will be held on the 24th of the Tokyo Metropolitan Assembly to ask each delegate about the capital's new fiscal year's budget proposal, and the LDP of the Tokyo Metropolitan Assembly will fix Governor Koike's metropolitan administration over measures such as responding to the new coronavirus. .

Under such circumstances, it is an issue whether the party headquarters and the Tokyo Metropolitan Government can become monolithic for the governor's election.
