Former
MHLW Minister Akira Nagstuma is now the de facto candidate representing the labor
union/ex-SDP wing of the DPJ left, most
likely hurting Katsuya Okada in the first round vote. My no arithmetic, highly impressionistic
guess now puts my money on a Goshi -Nagatsuma runoff that Hosono will easily
win.
I’m
mildly surprised to read that Renho has failed to secure the necessary 20 Diet
member support to stand as a candidate. With its ranks depleted, shouldn’t the DPJ
change the rules to make it easier to stand?
