On the 17th, two days before the official campaign period for the 6·1 national simultaneous local election, the Democratic Party of Korea and the People’s Party held an election committee inauguration ceremony in Daegu side by side and vowed to win the election.
At 4 pm on the same day, the People’s Power held a ceremony to award nominations and inauguration of the Daegu election committee at the Daegu City Hall auditorium. Most of the candidates, including Rep. Ho-Young Joo (Daegu Suseong-Gu-Gap), who served as the permanent election chairperson, Yong-Pan Kim (Dalseo-Gu-Byung, Daegu), the head of the election headquarters, Dae-Sik Kang (Dong-Gu-Eul, Daegu), and Candidate Hong Jun-pyo of Daegu Mayor attended the event.
The power of the people, who presented a large number of cases of ‘no-vote election’ in Daegu early, created an atmosphere as if victory was in fact confirmed. A significant number of candidates wore plain clothes instead of sportswear to attend, as non-voting winners cannot wear sportswear.
A relaxed atmosphere was sensed in the congratulatory speech of the officials. Rep. Joo Ho-young said, “Elected positions are not a place to be treated, but a position for a servant who provides unlimited service.
He added, “A tiger does his best even when he catches a rabbit. Daegu is a place with overwhelming support for the people’s power, so please do your best without thinking that it is okay to be flustered.”
Rep. Kim Yong-pan also said, “There are many people who worry that the voter turnout might be lowered because Daegu has too many non-voting districts.” Let’s try,” he said.
