The Japanese Senate election is approaching, and polls show that the opposition camp has higher popularity.

Jin10 data reported on July 7th that the 27th House of Councillors election in the Japanese Diet is scheduled for voting on the 20th. A recent opinion poll conducted by Kyodo News from the 5th to the 6th shows that the popularity of the opposition camp is higher than that of the ruling coalition, with nearly half of the respondents hoping that the ruling coalition formed by the Liberal Democratic Party and Komeito will not achieve a majority of seats. The Japanese House of Councillors is responsible for legislative review and government oversight, with 248 seats, and members serve a six-year term, with half elected every three years. This election will contest 125 seats, including 74 district seats, 50 proportional representation seats, and 1 by-election seat. According to Japanese media, the results of this House of Councillors election will influence the fate of Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba's cabinet. If the ruling coalition secures fewer than 50 seats, Prime Minister Ishiba may resign or restructure the ruling coalition.
