    55% voter turnout (66mil of 121mil)
    lpd got 49% of votes (27mil)
    ldp got 22% of the populations vote (27mil of 121mil)
    They get 77% of the seats (316 of 465)

    Western media: super majority, the people love her!

    quick math i did from results as listed on wikipedia

    communist party (eurocom losers) won tokyo seat, but lost 4 of their previous 8 seats, never see them mentioned in the west tho

    I know the new leader is a fascist and dismantled their version of congress. Or maybe cabinet ?

    I’m unclear on their government organization.

    Otherwise I don’t know much. But can’t say it’s looking good.

    I know practically nothing about Japanese politics. I could find out, but Japan is not important enough of a country to invest the time.
