Jang Dong-hyuk, leader of the People Power Party, please make a resolute decision from now on to stake everything on achieving a re-election for the 6·3 local elections and the by-elections for National Assembly members.
The National Election Commission must be dissolved and a new election body must be established. Since the wholesale election fraud has been clearly confirmed this time, the National Election Commission must be dissolved and a new framework for fair elections must be created.
Through this, please push for a re-establishment of the party by expelling anti-conservative elements disguised within the party and by embracing the consolidation of conservatives from outside the mainstream political circles.
This election has resulted in a situation where students could not take the CSAT because they did not receive the exam papers at the testing center. Such CSAT testing centers are everywhere.
Furthermore, exam papers with all six questions missing and papers with only two questions missing were distributed, leading to students taking the exam with different sets of questions, and this is happening in various places.
Imagine if such a CSAT were conducted. The entire media would unleash nuclear-level criticism against the president and the education authorities, and the country would be thrown into chaos. The administration would be in ruins, and the knives of investigation would be sharp.
Even though the election was conducted in this state, fundamentally undermining the basis of liberal democracy, the commander-in-chief is attempting to downplay the people's outcry with a detached rhetoric of "regret" and to normalize the election itself.
In the case of the Incheon mayoral election, in the early voting in Songdo 1-dong and Songdo 2-dong, where the number of voters differed, Democratic Party candidate Park Chan-dae received 3,030 votes each, and People Power Party candidate Yoo Jeong-bok received 1,440 votes each. This is a miraculous probability of two lightning strikes hitting simultaneously in the Blue House's inner chambers.
Specifically, looking at the early voting turnout in these two districts, Park Chan-dae received 66.7% in each district, while Yoo Jeong-bok received 31.7% in each district. This represents a staggering 35% adjustment in vote manipulation.
Although Mayor Yoo Jeong-bok defeated Park Chan-dae in most of Incheon's towns and villages during the in-person voting, he lost by a significant 35% in the "black box" early voting, leading to his defeat.
The voter turnout in Honam is unprecedented and extraordinary. In several places, the number of registered voters was inflated by 10% to 20% more than the actual resident population. Is this still not wholesale election fraud?
Leader Jang Dong-hyuk, please demand a summit with Lee Jae-myung. Meet with him, share the evidence of wholesale election fraud, and resolve the crucial issue of immediate re-election and the dissolution of the National Election Commission.
Furthermore, please stake everything on accepting the introduction of a special prosecutor led by the opposition party to ensure severe punishment, regardless of rank.
Additionally, the identity of the mysterious disguised police officers mobilized to forcibly disperse the peaceful protests of citizens blocking the removal of ballot boxes, and the commander responsible for the violent suppression, must be revealed.
Go to the scene of the Songpa "Re-election Revolution" and pay attention to the angry 20s and 30s youth flocking from across the country. You must also pay attention to the footsteps of the older generation who are following them and stepping away from their daily lives.
This is the last chance to save a country hardening into dictatorship. If Lee Jae-myung refuses the summit, lead the charge for Lee Jae-myung's resignation along with the people.
The red forces in this land will use a stratagem of "borrowing a knife to kill" by putting forward Han Dong-hoon to bring down Jang Dong-hyuk. Han Dong-hoon's entry into the National Assembly was impossible from the start. It was never created by the people.
Recalling the life-or-death struggle of seven days, we must now be prepared for a struggle where we bleed even as we eat. This will be a decisive moment of "death brings life."
