The question is not whether #LeeJaemyung will get over 50% of the vote (he will), but how low #KimMoonsoo will score. The even duller #Handucksoo would have garnered much more votes, including from anyone-but-LJM #DPK.

#HanDucksoo replaces #KimMoonsoo as #PPP champion after embarrassing conflict while #LeeJaemyung cruises to planned victory.

#KimMoonsoo, the People Power Party’s (PPP) presidential candidate, declared Friday that he would not unify his candidacy with independent candidate #HanDucksoo, amid ongoing conflict over a potential merger.

#KimMoonsoo proposes a late debate (3 days beyond #HanDucksoo's deadline, 2 days before overseas vote starts) to save face. #LeeJaemyung's trial postponed until after election day... naughty guys running the show on both sides.

#KimMoonsoo refuses to unite with #HanDucksoo, who will not fight for the job, and simply desist if Kim doesn't move, exposing the conservative's stubbornness.

Support for independent #한덕수 #HanDuckSoo is ahead of #국민의힘 #PPP candidate #김문수 #KimMoonSoo by age #리얼미터 #RealMeter as Reported by #연합뉴스 #Yonhap.

Did he just want an excuse to resign as #ActingPresident?
Ofc splitting the #conservative vote is their big worry, but they def don't seem worried abt #개혁신당 #NewReformParty.

🇰🇷🗳️ El Partido del Poder Popular elige a Kim Moon-soo como su candidato presidencial para las elecciones del 3 de junio en Corea del Sur, convocadas tras la destitución de Yoon por su fallido intento de imponer la ley marcial. #CoreaDelSur #KimMoonSoo

#KimMoonsoo officially #PPP candidate to face #MoonJaein (since #DPK unlikely to dump his leader in spite of #supremecourt ruling that confirmed him guilty)

#HanDucksoo & #OhSehoon not running, #KimMoonsoo leads pack of #PPP candidates for #Korea prez: #HongJoonpyo, #NaKyungwon, #AhnCheolsoo, #HanDonghoon.
#LeeJaemyung dominates #DKP race in front of moderate #KimDongyeon and #KimKyoungsoo.

If #Korea prez elections held on June 3, candidates must be selected in early May, primaries organized before. #KimMoonsoo likely to run against #LeeJaemyung. Will #OhSehoon run and risk losing #Seoul (should then resign)?
