Covid 19 - Dispatch from Seoul | Elections
The parliamentary elections took place yesterday in South Korea. The government took multiple mesures to allow electors to cast their votes in the safest way. Each elector had to queue 1 meter from each other and wear a mask. Upon arrival at the door, a first temperature check was processed, then, voters had to wash their hands with sanitizer before picking a pair of disposable gloves. Only then, they were allowed inside to cast their vote.
South Korea was among the first countries to hold a national vote since the pandemic began. The party of President Moon Jae-in has won a decisive victory in those elections, with voters backing the government's response to the coronavirus pandemic.
