Kamiya, Vorsitzender von Sanseito, sagte, es bestehe eine „gute Chance“, dass er bei der Premierministerwahl für Takaichi stimmen werde

Sanseito is just the shitty beta version of modern Japanese nationalism. They proved a market exists for foreigner fatigue, then Takaichi came with the pro version and stole all of their customers. There’s basically no reason for conservatives to vote for them as even Kamiya now admits himself 🤡
If you want a prime minister who screams all day about foreigners kicking deer or buying up property, you just need to re-elect the current one!

Not surprising considering that first polls (of course this can change) point to LDP romp and on the contrary support for Sanseito down compare to recent upper house elections.
