Jung Cheong-rae, the leader of the Democratic Party, reflected on his campaign efforts on June 2, stating, "I have done my best with a heart to move heaven," just one day before the June 3 local elections. He characterized this election as pivotal for resolving insurrection and shaping the future of South Korea, urging voters to participate.
After the conclusion of a rally supporting candidate Jung Won-oh at Cheonggye Plaza in Seoul, Jung told reporters, "The official campaign is now heading toward its final destination. I have worked hard to do everything I could and have given my all."
He added, "I have moved with a heart to move heaven. I will spend tonight with the mindset of doing my best and will encourage voters to cast their ballots through legal means on June 3, when campaigning is prohibited."
Jung emphasized the importance of this local election in supporting President Lee Jae-myung and eliminating the remnants of insurrection, stating that South Korea must move toward a brighter future.
He remarked, "This election is about empowering President Lee and clearing away the remnants of insurrection to advance toward the future of South Korea. The Democratic Party has done its utmost, and we await the people's judgment."
Additionally, Jung announced plans to boost voter turnout in key battleground areas, where close races are expected. He said, "In competitive regions, the outcome could be decided by a narrow margin. Therefore, we must encourage voting tomorrow. Ultimately, we need as many people as possible to come out. I will promote voter turnout through legal means to the best of my ability."
