The candidates for the People Power Party in the Seoul Jung-Seongdong-eul district for the April 10 general election have been decided through a runoff vote between Representative Ha Tae-kyung and former Representative Lee Hye-hoon.


In this district, a three-way primary was held including former Representative Lee Young, who served as the first Minister of SMEs and Startups under the Yoon Seok-yeol administration, but it was reported on the 9th that no candidate received a majority of the votes.


Accordingly, Representative Ha and former Representative Lee proceeded to a runoff, while former Representative Lee Young was eliminated.
