Amid the 4·7 re-elections being held, the Gyeongnam Election Commission decided that some of the careers published in election publications for Uiryeong County head candidate Oh Tae-wan, the power of the people, were’different from the facts’.
The Gyeongnam Election Commission said, “Symbol No. 2 People’s Power of the People” In the announcement of candidate Oh Tae-wan’s selection )’,’Deputy Governor’s Special Political Affairs (Level 1 Equivalent)’,’Policy Manager (Level 2)’, and’Level 1 Equivalent’,’Level 2 Equivalent’, and’Level 2’are listed in parentheses. It’s not true.”
In this way, the NEC decided to post a notice at each entrance to the pre-voting center and the polling place on election day.
Candidate Tae-Wan Oh was the former Gyeongnam Governor Hong Joon-pyo as the Gyeongnam Provincial Office Policy Director, Political Affairs Coordination Office Director, and Political Affairs Special Assistant. Candidate Oh marked ‘1st class equivalent’ and ‘2nd class equivalent’ in the career column of this election publication.
Then, the Democratic Party of Gyeongnam Province and Gyeongnam Province made an objection to the NEC, saying that it was not true. Accordingly, the election committee decided that it was’different from the facts’ after receiving information from Candidate Oh and related data from the Gyeongnam Provincial Office.
In a statement issued on the 3rd, No Chi-hwan, spokesman for the Gyeongnam Provincial Party’s Election Countermeasure Committee said, “I am sorry for the election committee’s decision.” Where are you?”
Regarding the decision of the NEC, Roh said, “The NEC has stated that the related matters are’not true’, which anyone can misunderstand as’false facts’. This interpretation of the NEC forgets its position as a constitutional institution and appeals against it. “It can be said to be an extremely unfair and partial decision that gave hands to the ruling party who applied for and the candidate belonging to it.”
At the same time, spokeswoman Roh said, “From some point, the election committee is only looking at the government’s attention. This is not only the election of the Uiryeong county. It is the same as the behavior of the election commission shown in the election of the mayor of Seoul.” He said, “The decision of the NEC’s nonsense, tailored only to the taste of the regime, is in the midst of a lot of people’s resentment.”
Spokesman Noh Chi-hwan said, “The National Power of the Gyeongnam Provincial Party’s Election Task Force is very sorry for this decision by the Election Commission, which is unfair and tilted to one side. Only the votes of the people can correct the truth.”
Meanwhile, the Democratic Party’s Gyeongnam Provincial Party accused Candidate Oh of spreading false information to the Masan District Office of the Changwon District Prosecutors’ Office, and the Gyeongnam Provincial Party, the power of the people, accused him of spreading false information.
