Mr. Tamaki, the representative of the Democratic Party for the People, and Mr. Yoshino, the chairman of the Confederation, met over the summer Upper House election, and the Confederation requested that the candidates be coordinated with the Constitutional Democratic Party.
In response, Mr. Tamaki only stated at a press conference after the meeting that he would make a "comprehensive decision."
On the morning of the 31st, the Democratic Party for the People and the Union met with executives from both sides, including Representative Tamaki and Chairman Yoshino, in the Diet.
In this, the Union side reiterated that the summer House of Councilors election should be coordinated with the Constitutional Democratic Party, centering on a "one-person district" with a capacity of one person.
In response, Mr. Tamaki explained the party's policy of supporting candidates as much as possible even in the "one-person district" in order to increase the votes of the proportional representation.
After the meeting, Mr. Tamaki said at a press conference, "Although various forms of adjustment are being made under the surface, there are cases where the election system cannot achieve both the objectives of unifying candidates and accumulating proportional votes. We will make a comprehensive decision based on the individual circumstances of the ward. "
