NEC Dismisses Petition to Nullify Seoul Mayoral Election, Citing No Impact on Results

The National Election Commission (NEC) announced that it dismissed an election petition filed by an ordinary voter seeking to invalidate the Seoul mayoral election over issues such as a shortage of ballots during the June 3 local elections, following a decision made on the 7th.

Explaining the rationale for the dismissal, the NEC stated, "While it is true that regulations related to the election were violated due to ballot shortages and suspended voting, it cannot be seen as having affected the election results."

The NEC also dismissed petitions concerning the superintendent of education elections in Seoul and Incheon for the same reasons.
