JCP Chair Shii Kazuo at a news conference said, "With a focus on constituencies where opposition candidates and their ruling-party rivals are likely to confront each other, we opposition parties should jointly support candidates."
The Civil Alliance working to abolish the national security-related legislation and restore constitutionalism published a 15-item request made to opposition parties with a change in government in mind.
The JCP for the first time in 22 years voted for the leader of another opposition party in the prime ministerial election. Prior to the election, the CDPJ leader asked for JCP cooperation by saying that he will do his best in collaboration with the JCP.
