<Reporter> The
People's Power has elected Yoon Seok-yeol as a candidate for next year's presidential election.
Candidate Yoon took first place with 47.85% of the final vote, and the gap with Candidate Hong Jun-pyo, who got 41.5%, was 6.35 percentage points.
It was followed by Yoo Seung-min at 7.47% and Won Hee-ryong at 3.17%.
This election was held in a way that reflects 50% of the party member votes and the results of the public opinion polls each.
In the poll, Hong had a 10% or more advantage over Yoon, but that did not overturn the result.
It seems to be the result of reflecting the prevailing trend of Candidate Yoon in the party opinion and Hong in the public opinion.
In his candidacy speech, Candidate Yoon emphasized that he would surely achieve a regime change to end the politics of division and anger, and the politics of corruption and looting.
[Yoon Seok-yeol/People's Power Presidential Candidate: This presidential election is a battle between common sense Yoon Seok-yeol and irrational Lee Jae-myung. It is a fight between rationalists and populists.]
Candidate Hong Jun-pyo admitted defeat by saying that he would win the election cleanly, and said that everyone should work together to achieve a regime change.
The multilateral presidential race began with Lee Jae-myung of the Democratic Party, Sim Sang-jeong of the Justice Party, Ahn Cheol-soo of the People's Party, and Yoon Seok-yeol as the candidates for the People's Power.
