Finally, I will go to Gwangju.



KBC reporter Koo Young-seul, I saw the child visiting the voting booth with his father earlier, but is the voting proceeding normally?



<Reporter>



Yes, I am now at the 5th polling place in Geumho 2-dong, Gwangju.



Voting has been going on for an hour from 6 am, and voters have been coming to cast their precious votes from early in the morning.



To prevent the spread of COVID-19, voters are lining up at each polling place, keeping a distance of at least 1m.



In Gwangju and Jeonnam, voting is being held in 1,227 places including this one.



The number of electors is 1.2 million in Gwangju and 1.58 million in Jeollanam-do.



Earlier, in the preliminary voting held for two days on the 27th and 28th, the Gwangju area recorded a turnout of 17.28%.



Jeonnam recorded the highest voter turnout in the country, 31.04%.



In general, attention was drawn to the high turnout in the battlefield between Democratic candidates and independent candidates.



The point to watch is to what extent the Democratic Party and independent candidates will fight in the main vote in this local election.
