The new leader of the Democratic Party, Jeong Kyung-rae, temporarily leads Park Jang-da!
In the regional tour campaign for the new leader of the Democratic Party, the first round started in the Chungcheong area, and Jeong Kyung-rae led Park Jang-da by a large margin.
In the online voting results of the rights members in Daejeon, Sejong, Chungcheongnam-do, and Chungcheongbuk-do areas announced on July 19, Jeong Kyung-rae received 62.77% of the votes, while Park Jang-da received 37.23%.
The rules for the Democratic Party leader election are to rank candidates by adding 15% of the votes from legislators, 55% of the votes from rights members, and 30% of the public opinion survey.
The Democratic Party will continue the campaign in the Gyeongsang region on the 20th, in the Honam region on the 26th, in Gyeonggi-Incheon on the 27th, and in Seoul, Gangwon, and Jeju next month on the 2nd.
In his speech that day, Jeong Kyung-rae said: "I will serve as the party leader efficiently and effectively. Prosecutorial reform, media reform, and judicial reform will come like a storm. I will take on the battle, allowing President Lee Jae-myung to focus on his work."
"Yoon Suk-yeol was removed from office and sent to prison, but the internal unrest has not ended. In the election held after the emergency martial law internal unrest incident, we did not receive 50% of the votes, and they also received more than 40%. Strong leadership is needed during the war period, and strong reforms come with strong resistance. I will break through this. Important party policies will be decided by the members, and a permanent party-wide vote will be held. At the end of the year, the party member award ceremony will be held at places such as the Seoul World Cup Stadium, and an award ceremony for outstanding department members will be held."
