On the 18th, the Constitutional Democratic Party's representative, Izumi, held individual party leader talks with the Communist Party, Reiwa Shinsengumi, and the Social Democratic Party over the upper house election in the summer, and unified the candidates in a one-person district with a capacity of one person. We agreed to proceed with the adjustments towards.
