Japanese government concealing disasters

This is a follow-up report of the application for a postponement of the election that was submitted by all members of the city assembly.

At night, the secretariat of the Election Commission held a committee meeting and held it as scheduled.
We have decided to do so."
The staff seemed to be suffering, but I think the judgment and laws of the central and prefectural governments are still inadequate.

I will think about it while consulting with everyone.
I'm very sorry.

I looked at Twitter and I doubted my eyes.
Kimitsu City, Chiba Prefecture, which should be in a serious situation due to the damage of Typhoon No. 15, will hold a city election on schedule.

All the candidates seem to have requested postponement, but the reply from the country is "Please do as usual."

How do you run a campaign in this situation?
Where can you hear the candidate's claims because the power outage has lasted long?

There have been a number of examples of postponed elections due to disasters.
Is election more important than human life?

It's clearly violating the Constitution and is a significant violation of human rights.

Even if it's unavoidable that this election will be held, I think that it should be re-elected after recovery because it's an invalid election.

The media isn't reporting this fact.
Not even online articles.
If it becomes a big topic on SNS, the media must be taken up.

The government has not yet established a “disaster” response headquarters.
The establishments are Chiba Prefecture and the opposition parties.

Don't be fooled by the media, the government has a “power outage” countermeasure headquarters.
With regard to electricity, we will raise the country and support it, but the view isn't a disaster.

On the 16th, an article titled "Planned to consider whether to designate Chiba Prefecture as a devastating disaster" finally appeared.

Too late. If you specify a catastrophic disaster, public opinion will suspend or postpone the consumption tax increase.
Individuals and companies have laws that exempt consumption tax if they apply for a disaster. The government doesn't want to be a national unit.

I don't allow the current administration of Japan.
