WoWWC - Voting ends for Japan’s House of Representatives election in 2024
For this week on “What’s on World Wide Campus?”, we’re going to discuss the voting ends for Japan’s House of Representatives election in 2024 #japanesegeneralelection
Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba’ s ruling coalition lost a majority in the 465-seat lower house in a key parliamentary election Sunday, Japan’s NHK public television said. The results reflect voters’ outrage over the governing party’s extensive financial scandals.
Ishiba’s Liberal Democratic Party remains the top party in Japan’s parliament, and a change of government is not expected. But the results create political uncertainty. Falling short of a majority makes it difficult for Ishiba to get his party’s policies through parliament, and he may need to find a third coalition partner. The LDP’s coalition retains a majority in the less powerful upper house.
With all but one seat accounted for, the ruling coalition with junior partner Komeito secured 214 seats, down sharply from the majority of 279 it previously held. It is the coalition’s worst result since briefly falling from power in 2009.
