On the 4th, the first day of the election campaign for the governor of Chiba Prefecture, members of the Diet from the major political parties rushed to each camp to appeal their joint struggle with the candidates.

In the Liberal Democratic Party, Itsunori Onodera, leader of the party organizing movement, participated in the inauguration ceremony of Mr. Masayuki Seki. “There was a request from the secretary general, Toshihiro Nikai, to go to the site by all means,” declared the full support of the party.

The Komeito, which had not decided to respond to the governor’s election, decided that same day a “voluntary vote.” Mr. Seki’s support was requested by the Prefectural Federation of the Liberal Democratic Party, but due to the scandal of a prefecturally elected member of the Diet who belonged to the Liberal Democratic Party, the decision was postponed.

Some assembly from Komeito prefecture rushed to attend Mr. Seki’s departure ceremony. Meanwhile, Shigeyuki Tomita, a member of the House of Representatives, attended the departure ceremony of Toshihito Kumagai, who has a close relationship with him. Although he showed consideration for the Liberal Democratic Party, he said: “It is not a confrontation between the ruling party and the opposition, but a battle between the prefectural party and a candidate who appreciates his own party.”

The Constitutional Democratic Party decided to support Mr. Kumagai in the prefectural assembly, and Yoshihiko Noda, the senior adviser, gave him an encouraging salute.

In addition, incumbent Kensaku Morita, who until now had not mentioned his support for specific candidates, said at Mr. Seki’s exit ceremony: “Young man, guts. A man who has a solid pipe with the country.” It was sent.
