Abe’s Liberal Democratic party and its coalition partner Komeito together are on track to win as many as 83 seats, well over the 63 seats needed for a majority of the 124 seats to be contested on Sunday, the poll by the Nikkei business daily conducted late last week showed. Such a showing could enable the ruling bloc and other smaller parties including the Japan Innovation Party, which support constitutional revisions, to maintain their “super majority”, or two-thirds of the vote. Such a majority is needed to start the process of revising Japan’s post-World War Two pacifist constitution.

Oh No! Please just don’t rely on polls and fake news by corporate sponsored Nikkei and the likes. Remember “Taro Yamamoto” , he and his team will surly do a real miracle on the coming election. The first ever real revolution by the people in Japanese political history.

That's why he's all talk.
