presidential election: the battle for the prime minister's throne

the ldp presidential election is scheduled to announce its campaign announcement on september 12, with voting to be held on the 27th.

since the liberal democratic party of japan holds a majority of seats in the diet, this also means that whoever wins the election will secure the position of japan's next prime minister.

japanese media said that this election is the first presidential election held after the liberal democratic party was exposed to the "black money" scandal. the 15-day campaign period is also the longest in history, aiming to restore public support by extending the campaign period.

according to the election voting rules, in the first round of voting, the votes of ldp members from all over japan and ldp members of parliament each account for half, and the candidate who receives more than half of the votes wins. if no one receives more than half of the votes, the two candidates with the most votes will enter the second round of voting, which will be decided by voting by ldp members of parliament and prefectural branches.
