Lee Eon-ju, a former member of the People’s Power, running for the Busan Mayor’s by-election, said on the 22nd, “Busan is not such an overwhelming place to win.” “Busan is the hometown of President Moon Jae-in, and there are 30~40% of the enthusiastic Democratic Party supporters. The same,” he said.
Representative Lee appeared on BBS radio that day and said, “This election is an election caused by sexual harassment (Oh Geo-don, former mayor of Busan). It is advantageous in terms of a frame, but that part is also forgotten.” “Gadeok and new airport issues are a favorable frame for the ruling party.” Said. “I hope that the party leadership will be more interested in the (Busan) election. It is not important whether the party leadership is coming to (Busan) or not, but it will be of great help if the party does a deep study on the current issues in Busan. I ordered.
In the power of the people who were initially optimistic about the Busan mayoral election, tensions are flowing as a recent public opinion poll said that Busan’s public sentiment was not serious. In a public opinion poll released by Real Meter on the 21st (reviewed on the 18th to 20th, refer to the Central Election Commission’s website for details), the party support rating of the Democratic Party in Busan, Ulsan and Gyeongnam was 34.5% and the power of the people 29.9%. . In the same survey a week ago, 24.7% (the Democratic Party) and 40.7% (the power of the people) turned back sharply.
When the’red light’ came into the Busan mayoral election, there was a concern among local lawmakers, “As it seems clear that it is on a downtrend, we must be alert” (Rep. Jewon Jang on the 21st) and “a reflection effect and bubble approval rate that were freely obtained from the situation of the Moon Jae-in administration.” Came out from The day before, “I will go to Busan once before Lunar New Year,” said Kim Jong-in, chairman of the National Power Emergency Response Committee meeting with reporters that day, saying, “We may take a position to actively deal with (Gadeokdo new airport)”.
However, the Gallup Korea public opinion poll that was released on the same day (refer to the website of the Central Election Survey Deliberation Committee on the 19th and 21st, for details) yielded different results from the real meter survey. In the Busan, Ulsan, and Gyeongnam regions, the support rate of the people’s strength was 36%, and the Democratic Party approval rate was 22%. Compared to the same survey last week (29% of the people’s strength and 23% of the Democratic Party), the gap widened.
