I’ve already written about Yuka Ogata’s reelection but today I learned that an NHK video about her reelection campaign is available on the web. To find it, you need to click on the following link (not the photo) and then scroll way down until you see 「子連れ議員の選挙戦」 in a tab on the left-hand side of the screen. If you click on that, you should be able to view the video, which is entirely in Japanese, unfortunately.
The video explains that the roots of Ms. Ogata’s interest in politics is her experience working for the United Nations.
