We will incorporate this private style into Toyama Prefecture and change it into a new Toyama. "

I want to make use of that experience in the prefectural government. I want the first female governor of Toyama to push up to create a beautiful Toyama that grows with the citizens of the prefecture. "
▽ Candidate Ishii said, "I swear that I will work with all my heart to protect the citizens of the prefecture from the new coronavirus and take on the challenge of making a new leap. However, I would like you to trust me, who has been involved in tax and financial issues for many years, and leave it to me. "
Toyama Prefecture has the highest ratio of LDP members to voters in Japan, and the LDP Toyama Kenren recommended Mr. Ishii this time.
However, some members of the prefectural assembly said that the prefectural government needed to be renewed, and with the support of Mr. Nitta, the composition was "conservative division" for the first time in 51 years.
