– On the 1st, it was predicted that the opposition will win in the Seoul-Busan mayoral election in April and the presidential election in March next year.

In particular, among the respondents who classified their political orientation as’moderate’, 44.5% of the respondents answered’opposition victory’, which was 25.6 percentage points ahead of the ruling party’s victory (18.9%). As for the meaning of this election, 51.5% of the respondents said that it was’intermediate evaluation of the current government’, higher than that of’the election for the right person for local administration’ (44.9%).
