Incumbents win in Nagasaki, Yamaguchi gubernatorial elections

It seems that problem with most of the opposition groups, when it comes time to election campaigns, they are always against something. A nuclear power plant, increasing the size and activity at a US base. They never give the people anything to really rally around. The LDP backed candidates promise economic recovery, jobs, a chicken in every pot. While completely false, the voters fall for it hook line and sinker every time. When will the opposition finally learn how to campaign to win?

When voter’s turnout falls below 50%, the elections should be declared undemocratic!

The LDP always gets their way because of fiscal reforms and local revitilization promises. On the other hand, that’s not really their goal. It’s just like Hitler before WW2. promising fiscal reforms, but rather rapidly increase nationalism propaganda at the same time!

Haven’t we seen this trend with LDP-party the last 5 years with Abe in lead?! Come on, Japan.

Idiots. Yamaguchi will vote for abe because he’s from there. A casino in Nagasaki will increase crime and send money to US copmpanies with no benefit. They should of voted on issues like aging, pensions and health.

Abe was not a. candidate. He is still prime minister.
