Kim Won-i: "I Will Stake Everything on the Fact That It Is Not a Fabrication"

Candidate Bae Jong-ho's Camp Warned by Democratic Party Election Commission for Encouraging Double Voting

Kim Won-i, a preliminary candidate for Mokpo City National Assembly from the Democratic Party of Korea, revealed on his SNS on the 8th that Bae Jong-ho’s camp, which is suspected of encouraging double voting by party members, received a ‘warning’ from the Democratic Party’s Election Commission, and stated that the next step after the warning is ‘disqualification.’

On the 7th, Candidate Kim held an emergency press conference, raising suspicions of organized and widespread double voting manipulation by Bae Jong-ho’s camp, and reported the incident to the party’s Election Commission, the Mokpo City Election Commission, and also filed a complaint with the Mokpo Police Station.

He emphasized on SNS, “Illegal double voting manipulation is a clear election crime that can lead to disqualification.”

He continued, “Candidates Jeong Dong-young and Shin Jeong-hoon, who faced similar issues reported in the media, sincerely apologized to the public. However, Candidate Bae Jong-ho claimed on the 7th that he cannot control volunteers acting voluntarily and suggested the possibility of sabotage by opponents,” strongly criticizing Candidate Bae.

He added, “Candidate Bae Jong-ho, I stake everything on the fact that this is not sabotage. What will you stake?” dismissing the possibility of sabotage.

Preliminary candidate Kim Won-i asked again to “Candidate Bae Jong-ho, the advocate of sabotage politics,” saying, “How will you explain to the citizens of Mokpo the Democratic Party’s disciplinary action for excessive party member inquiries during the 21st general election primary, the statement by Representative Moon Jae-in that ‘the Democratic Party is a failed party,’ and your own SNS post calling yourself the ‘original core of Ahn Cheol-soo’?” strongly criticizing Bae’s past political activities.

Finally, he warned, “I warn Candidate Bae Jong-ho. Apologize a hundred times before the citizens of Mokpo,” officially demanding an apology.
