The results of the Hyogo Prefectural gubernatorial election following the loss of governor's position on the 17th showed that independent incumbent Saito Motohiko (47) was re-elected, defeating six independent newcomers, including former Amagasaki mayor Inamura Kazumi (52) and former House of Councillors member Shimizu Takayuki (50), who had left the Japan Restoration Party. During the election campaign, candidates were asked about the evaluation of Saito, who lost his position due to a document scandal alleging power harassment, and how he would rebuild the chaotic prefectural government. #kyodonews #KyodoNews #news #Governor #Lossofposition #Hyogo #Votecounting #SaitoMotohiko #Saito #AmagasakiMayor #InamuraKazumi #PowerHarassment #Director #Suicide
