The Komeito announced that it would support incumbent lawmakers in a different constituency than the current one in response to Tokyo, which will increase the number of electoral districts by five as the number of single-seat constituencies increases by 10 in the House of Representatives election. Next, we are telling the Liberal Democratic Party that we want to support candidates in the new “Tokyo 28 Wards”, which consists of the eastern part of Nerima Ward.

Liberal Democratic Party Secretary-General Motegi met with Komeito Secretary-General Ishii on the followingnoon of the 23rd and cooperated with Komeito’s new candidate, saying that the party’s Tokyo Metropolitan Government has decided to field a candidate for “Tokyo 28 Wards”. I conveyed the idea that it would be difficult and unacceptable to do so.

According to the people involved, the “12 wards of Tokyo” consisting of Kita Ward and the “15 wards of Tokyo” consisting of Koto Ward are expected to be considered.
