Japan’s ruling Liberal Democratic Party (LDP), led by Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi, achieved a landslide victory in the general election held on February 8. According to preliminary results from public broadcaster NHK, the LDP secured 352 out of 465 seats in the lower house, far exceeding the 233 needed to form a government. The official final results have not yet been announced.
Following early indications of victory, Takaichi told reporters that her party would continue to prioritize responsible and proactive fiscal policies, balancing financial stability with necessary investments. Despite recent pressure from political funding scandals and links to religious organizations, Takaichi called the snap election just three months after taking office to reaffirm public trust in her party.
The result contrasts sharply with the tenure of her two predecessors, when the LDP lost its majority amid corruption allegations and rising living costs. Analysts noted that the absence of a strong opposition has long favored the LDP’s dominance, while Takaichi’s personal popularity and approval ratings above 70 percent appear to have driven this decisive win.
