The election for the mayor of Izumiotsu City, Osaka Prefecture, due to the expiration of the current mayor’s term, was announced on the 8th. Kenichi Minade (44), the independent incumbent seeking a third term, and Takashi Tachibana (57), a newcomer from a different faction and leader of the political group “Party to Protect the People from NHK,” have filed their candidacy. The election campaign is expected to center around key issues such as fiscal reform and continuity of city government. Voting will take place on the 15th. Tachibana made his opening speech at noon in front of Nankai Izumiotsu Station, saying, “I will use my communication skills to increase tax revenue and enrich the lives of our citizens.” He added, “If the current government does not make money, the citizens will not become wealthy. “If I were to become mayor, I would use my name recognition to get YouTubers and other celebrities to open stores in the city’s shopping districts,” he proposed as a way to revitalize the area. “We will link this to gifts in return for hometown tax donations and increase the donation amount from the current 700 million yen to ten times that amount,” they said. He also said that he would make fees for issuing resident registration certificates and garbage bags free, and appealed, “I will give back the money I have earned to everyone.” During the speech, some people held up placards criticizing Tachibana, and there were moments when arguments broke out between Tachibana himself and the audience.

>>9 Izumiotsu City, or rather Osaka, has a population of 70,000 and won the 2020 mayoral election with 15,000 votes/67% of the vote, so he’ll definitely win.
Even though he’s on probation, he’s still able to operate normally, because he really does have legal professionals behind him and it looks like he’s being funded, so it would be really bad to make fun of him.
Minade-san, you’re strong. His criticism of the coronavirus vaccine was a bit off, but his youth, personality, track record, self-motivation, and humility are all wonderful.
