There is a view that the ruling party will inevitably have an impact on the administration of the government because the former chairman of the National Public Safety Commission, Hachiro Okonogi, who was supported by Prime Minister Kan in the Mayoral election of Yokohama, was destroyed.


Within the Liberal Democratic Party, there are a series of voices calling for the presidential election to be held before the lower house election, and the movement over the presidential election is expected to become active.

Former Yokohama City University professor Takeharu Yamanaka, who was recommended by the Constitutional Democratic Party, won the election for the mayor of Yokohama, which was the largest number of eight candidates in the past. ..



Within the ruling party, there is a view that the impact on the administration will be unavoidable due to the failure of Mr. Okonogi, who is close to Prime Minister Suga in Yokohama City, including the local constituency of Prime Minister Suga.



In addition, the LDP presidential election is scheduled to be decided on the 26th of this week, and in response to this result, there are a number of voices saying that "it should be held before the lower house election to appeal the party's policy debate." ..



However, there is an opinion calling for the postponement of the presidential election, saying that "for the time being, the government and the ruling party should concentrate on responding to the new corona," and the movement over the presidential election is expected to become active.



On the other hand, opposition parties such as the Constitutional Democratic Party said that it was the result of dissatisfaction and criticism of the Kan administration while the spread of the new corona infection could not be stopped, and immediately convened an extraordinary Diet session to respond to discussions such as strengthening measures. It is a policy to urge.



In addition, we would like to use Mr. Yamanaka's victory as a momentum for the House of Representatives election, so we will hurry to coordinate election cooperation.
