With just a week to go to the election, for the proportional representation vote, 80% of the unaffiliated voters are still to decide, according to the Asahi Shimbun’s poll. First, the basic numbers:

Q: Which party do you want to vote for in the proportional representation vote?

LDP 23%

DPJ 16%

New Komeito 6%

Communists 4%

SDP 3%

People’s New Party, New Party Nippon 0%

Not decided 38%

Q: (For those with no party affiliation only) Which party do you want to vote for in the proportional representation vote?

LDP 7%

DPJ 8%

New Komeito 2%

SDP 1%

Not decided 67%

No answer/don’t know 15%

Still a lot of votes to play for here! On another note, Post Office privatisation has dropped 11% to 39% as being an important topic, perhaps because everyone’s got sick to death hearing about it.
