Restoring Relationships and Winning Votes: People Power Party’s Strategy for the 2022 General Election

2023-11-13 12:12:00

It was pointed out that the People Power Party needs to restore its relationship with former representative Lee Jun-seok and renew key pro-Yun lawmakers in order to secure approval ratings among the ‘Central, Seoul, and Blue’ (centers, metropolitan areas, and youth), which are considered major variables in next year’s general election.

People Power Party lawmaker Ha Tae-kyung, who recently announced his candidacy for the metropolitan area, asked at the National Assembly building on the morning of the 13th, ‘How will the People Power unite with Lee Jun-seok and Yoo Seung-min?’ A discussion session was held. Rep. Ha said, “If former People Power Party representative Lee Jun-seok and former lawmaker Yoo Seung-min do not join us (the People Power Party) and take a different path, more than 40 to 50 seats will be lost, and the People Power Party may not have 100 seats (in next year’s general election). “There is,” he said. Representative Ha said, “In the metropolitan area, the winner is decided by a difference of 2 to 3 percentage points, so we need to discuss how many more seats will be gained if we reach a political compromise with them and form a coalition.” He said, “In order to improve our relationship with former CEO Lee, we must first restore former CEO Lee’s honor.”

Park Seong-min, CEO of political consulting firm Min, said regarding the creation of the new Lee and Yoo Party, “Former Lee, the main forces in the ruling party, including the so-called ‘Yoon Haek-gwan’, who were involved in the disciplinary action once morest him last year, are responsible in some way. “It will remain in the People Power Party only under the premise,” he said. He went on to predict, “If the ruling party shows a change in the direction of state administration, former leader Lee’s motivation to leave the party will disappear, and even if he proceeds to create a new party or join the ‘third zone’, his destructive power will decrease.”

Lee Seung-hwan, chairman of the People Power Party’s Seoul Jungnang-eul Party Council, said, “Just as the cold wave feels colder than the weather bureau temperature, public sentiment in the metropolitan area is really bad,” and “a solution to reform the party atmosphere is desperately needed.” Oh Shin-hwan, chairman of the Seoul Gwangjin-eul party council who also serves as an innovation committee member, said, “There is great doubt regarding whether it will be possible to win the general election under the current ‘Kim Ki-hyun system.’”
