Gonggwanwi 4th Meeting... Disqualifying Candidates Through Document Screening

Jung Young-hwan, the head of the People Power Party's Nomination Management Committee, said on the 6th before the committee's 4th meeting, "The Democratic Party's bulletproof nomination will inevitably face the judgment of the sovereign people."

The People Power Party's Nomination Management Committee will screen out unqualified candidates through document review of 849 applicants at the meeting.

Chairman Jung said, "Yoo Il-jun, the head of the Clean Nomination Support Group, will review unqualified candidates based on submitted documents such as applicants' criminal records," adding, "Candidates who lack moral integrity cannot gain the support of the voters."

He continued, "The Nomination Management Committee, which prioritizes morality as its first principle, will put an end to old-fashioned politics by not presenting immoral candidates to the public." He also said, "I believe the people will wisely choose whether to support the Democratic Party, which is a closed nomination system centered on Representative Lee Jae-myung, or the People Power Party, which conducts a systematic nomination process."

The People Power Party's Nomination Management Committee accepted applications until the 3rd, with a total of 849 applicants, an increase of 202 compared to the previous election. The committee is also expected to discuss key constituencies that will determine the outcome of the general election at the meeting.
