Lee Gang-rae Preliminary Candidate "Reiterates Call for Open Primary Debate"
[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Seon-gang] Lee Kang-rae, a preliminary candidate for the Democratic Party of Korea for Namwon, Sunchang, and Imsil in Jeonbuk, announced on the 24th, "I officially propose once again a public debate hosted by the media and civic groups."
Preliminary candidate Lee Kang-rae emphasized, "Due to the recent COVID-19 situation, there are restrictions on election campaigning through face-to-face contact, and there are many limitations in informing local voters about candidates' policies and visions. There is growing concern that the Democratic Party's primary election will proceed as a blind primary."

He continued, "Preliminary candidate Park Hee-seung recently publicly expressed his willingness to actively participate in the clean policy election campaign, so I urge him to demonstrate that intention through actions, not just words. In the case of Iksan, there was an example of holding a primary debate to verify Democratic Party preliminary candidates three days before the primary, so if Park Hee-seung's side has the will, conducting a primary debate is fully possible," he said.
