People Power Party Jeonnam Provincial Party "Democratic Party Nomination is a Mess, Unqualified for Election Campaign" Criticism

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Yoon Jamin] The People Power Party Jeonnam Provincial Party criticized the Democratic Party of Korea's nominations, stating that they are "not qualified to conduct election campaigns."

On the 20th, the provincial party issued a statement saying, "Looking at the situation in the Jeonnam region, it is doubtful whether the Democratic Party is qualified to officially campaign," and claimed, "They nominated candidates with various corruption and infidelity allegations as if Jeonnam belonged to them and their victory was a given."

They continued, "It is shocking to see them conducting election campaigns without even a single apology, as if mocking the local residents and treating the matter lightly."

Furthermore, they criticized, "The Democratic Party's Hampyeong County mayoral candidate was referred to the prosecution on charges of bribery and bribery offering, and even amid the Hampyeong County Office Secretary's office being raided by the police, the candidate was still nominated," and "The Gurye County mayoral candidate was confirmed despite being condemned by local public opinion over infidelity allegations."

They also explained, "The Jeonnam Provincial Assembly candidate in the Yeosu area, who not only committed drunk driving but was also sentenced to prison for breach of trust and lost their assembly seat, was nominated and effectively confirmed elected without opposition."

Along with this, they added, "Such behavior makes it impossible to see the Democratic Party's expulsion of National Assembly member Park Wan-joo over sexual misconduct allegations as anything but a show," and elaborated, "How can candidates with such allegations raise their faces before the residents and campaign for votes without a single word of apology?"

They concluded, "If the Democratic Party's expulsion of Assemblyman Park Wan-joo is a sincere response rather than a face-saving measure, we hope they apologize to the Jeonnam residents now and immediately withdraw the nominations of those involved in the related allegations."
