[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Hyun-joo] Yoon Seok-yeol, the presidential candidate of the People Power Party, encouraged COVID-19 confirmed and quarantined individuals to participate in voting starting from 6 PM on the 9th.


Yoon posted on his Facebook, stating, "The constitutional right to vote of the people must never be infringed," expressing this stance.


On the same day, Yoon also posted messages encouraging voting on Facebook around 9 AM and 1 PM.


He said, "Citizens confirmed with COVID-19 or under self-quarantine, please head to the polling station in your jurisdiction immediately," adding, "You must arrive at the polling station by 7:30 PM to be able to vote."


He continued, "We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused by time restrictions and various limitations," emphasizing, "If you judge us through voting, we will ensure that such incidents never happen again."



Previously, during early voting, controversy arose when ballots from COVID-19 confirmed and quarantined voters were delivered in baskets or garbage bags for volume-based waste disposal.
