The Hyogo Prefectural Gubernatorial Election, in which a record seven candidates ran, was held on the 17th, with former Governor Saito Motohiko declared victory. "Saito, Saito" The Hyogo Prefectural Gubernatorial Election, held following the passage of a motion of no confidence in the prefectural assembly, which resulted in former Governor Saito Motohiko losing his job, was held on the 17th, with former Governor Saito declaring victory at his campaign office in Kobe City just after 9:30 pm. Former Governor Saito touted his achievements as governor over the past three years during the election campaign, and his support grew towards the end, including by expanding his circle of support online. Former Governor Saito Motohiko said, "I am very sorry that this document issue has caused concern to the people of Hyogo and anxiety about the prefectural government. Many people have expressed their hope that I will make more and more reforms and move the prefectural government forward. This time, the news has spread in various ways through social media, and I have seen the positive aspects of social media. The real battle is yet to come. I do not want to stop moving forward to realize a dynamic Hyogo." For the time being, his challenges will be how to respond to the document issue that exposes his alleged power harassment, and how to deal with the prefectural assembly, which unanimously passed a vote of no confidence. ▼Feature videos, in-depth commentary, and the latest news delivered every day Please subscribe to our channel! / @ytv_news ▼Submit information here: "Submission Box" https://www.ytv.co.jp/toukou_box/ ▼Yomiuri TV News Bureau's social media TikTok / ytvnews X (formerly Twitter) / news_ytv ▼Yomiuri TV News https://www.ytv.co.jp/press/ ▼Kansai Information Network ten.
