[SSJ: 8170] LDP PR list Winners

From: Ehud Harari
Date: 2013/07/22

A short check of the background of the LDP PR winners in the July 21st HC elections reveals, as expected, that most of them represent/are supported by nation-wide interest groups. There also are three tarneto.

First on the list (most popular) is the representative of Zentoku (Special Post Offices).

Third is Satō Masahisa, former JDF officer. Why is he so popular among LDP voters? Significance?

Best wishes.
