Secretary General of the Liberal Democratic Party "Discussion including system review"
Liberal Democratic Party Secretary-General Mogi said at a press conference, "Correcting the one-vote gap is an important issue, but it has been more than four and a half centuries since the current single-member district proportional representation system was introduced, and it was defeated in the single-member district. There is also an opinion that a member with a low rate should be elected as a proportional representative for resurrection. It is necessary to discuss well with each party and each faction, including the review of the current system. "
