Local election results show mixed success for Japanese political parties.
TL;DR Summary
Nippon Ishin, a right-wing political party in Japan, won decisive victories in local elections in its Osaka home base, including the governor and mayoral races, as well as a majority of seats in both the prefectural and municipal assemblies. This strengthens the party's local presence and may impact its relationship with the ruling Liberal Democratic Party and Komeito bloc on the national stage.
