Kim Min-seok's 'Expansion Declaration' rendered meaningless as moderate-conservative sentiment remains unmoved

Support from moderates (50%) and conservatives (20%) has failed to recover for 23 consecutive weeks since late April
Messages for expansion are being overshadowed by internal party conflicts... By-elections in Gangneung and other areas to serve as a litmus test
(Seoul=News1) Reporter Keum Jun-hyuk = It has been revealed that the Democratic Party of Korea last recorded significant support among moderate and conservative groups 23 weeks ago, during the fourth week of April. Although Representative Kim Min-seok has stepped in as a "relief pitcher" with a platform of expanding the party's reach, no clear rebound has materialized. With the added complication of losing existing supporters, Representative Kim's concerns are expected to deepen as he struggles to win over the moderate and conservative vote.
