LDP Holds Healthy Lead In Polling, Support Rates Edge Higher After Kishida Takes Helm

JAPAN

The latest round of opinion polls released Monday showed that the ruling Liberal Democratic Party maintains a comfortable lead over its rivals ahead of the October 31 general election.

  • In a joint Sankei/FNN poll 45.3% of respondents said they support the LDP, up from 43.5% in the September poll. The main opposition Constitutional Democratic Party was backed by just 6.4% of respondents.
  • Worth noting that in their discussion of breakdown figures, Sankei highlighted a decline in supporters of the Kishida Cabinet who intend to vote for the LDP in the upcoming election.
  • NHK circulated a poll in which 41.2% of respondents said they support the LDP, up from 37.6% in the previous poll, while 6.1% preferred the CDP.
  • In a JNN survey, 41.5% of respondents chose the LDP as their party of preference, up from 38% recorded in the previous poll. Just 5.7% said they support the CDP.
  • Support for all other parties was in low single digits.
