Many polling stations where the ballot shortage occurred on the 3rd were said to be so-called 'conservative strongholds' in areas like Songpa and Gangnam. Although Seoul mayoral candidate Oh Se-hoon overtook Jeong Won-oh of the Democratic Party overnight and was ultimately elected, the 'election fraud' rumors are unlikely to die down. The chaos caused by the National Election Commission's 'poor management' is expected to lead to a strong backlash regardless of the election results, and since the Commission has acknowledged responsibility , demands for reform are also expected to pour in. The 'election fraud theory' was raised several times during the Yoon Suk-yeol administration, but despite each case being cleared of charges through prosecutorial investigations, the Election Commission's fatal 'administrative failures' have once again provided pretext, revealing that the conspiracy theories that had been dormant have resurfaced. Jeon Han-gil, who is at the center of the protests, said, "Evidence of election fraud is overflowing across the country. The election results are invalid," appealing for supporters to rally. Initially, the protesters who had gathered in front of the Seoul Government Complex in Gwanghwamun, Seoul, moved their assembly site late at night to the Gwacheon Central Election Commission, encouraged by Jeon. Members of the 'Election Commission Server Movement Headquarters,' who were already stationed on site, and conservative groups such as 'Freedom and Innovation,' led by former Prime Minister Hwang Kyo-ahn, who lost in the by-election in Pyeongtaek, Gyeonggi, joined, causing the market to surge overnight. So?? Oh Se-hoon won,,, the election result is invalid??? is it a re-election, what???
