Special Counsel: 30 Local Election Commissions Confirmed to Have Entered False Voter Numbers in Local Elections

A special counsel team led by Lee Tae-han, investigating allegations surrounding the National Election Commission (NEC), launched search and seizure operations after confirming that 30 local election commissions nationwide had entered false voter numbers during the June 3 local elections.

The local election commissions in question were found to have used methods such as falsely adjusting voter turnout figures or inputting data with constant incremental increases.

Since Thursday morning, the special counsel team has been executing search and seizure warrants at seven locations, including the NEC headquarters and regional election commissions in South Chungcheong, South Jeolla-Gwangju, South Gyeongsang, and Gangwon.
