On August 30, we have a Lower House election and referendum for the Supreme court judges.We can cast ballots for the following three items.

1. We can vote for an individual candidate in our region.

2. We can vote for the party we support.

3. We can make a cross against any judge we object to ( but we don’t have to write anything if we have no objection) This time we can evaluate nine judges. But regarding Supreme court matters, many people say that they can’t get enough information to make a decision. I think so too.

But this is a very important issue. This time I had a close look and will take it seriously. And I got my own decision. Not only me but many people seem to take this election very seriously.

When the economy was on an upward trend people were just being optimistic but now I guess many people in the world are worried about their lives.

I hope our decisions lead to better societies and I feel sure in the case of Japan that we are moving into another era.
