Yesterday's regional/local elections in S.Korea

AND THE WINNER IS... (surprise, surprise!) THE RULING CLASS
But (unfortunately) the ruling class in S.K. isn't the working class...

According to K. Herald out of the total 228 electoral districts picking lower-level administrative chiefs, the DP scored victories in 92 districts while the GNP secured 82 posts. Independent candidates won 36 posts while the LFP and the minority Democratic Labor Party garnered 17 posts and three posts, respectively.
