bruh this is like watching a comedy sketch but it's actually real government π
Imho the real issue is that during elections the commission just pulls random local government workers and there's no way to hold them accountable. They always say 'oh that wasn't our staff' lol. What needs to happen is having one commission staff member at each polling station to actually take responsibility. But since they just borrow local workers and bounce after elections, it's a never-ending cycle. That'd be the fix but the commission won't hire more people even though they need to, so it's just gonna keep happening.
The commission's got 3k staff total but there are 15k polling stations, so unless they're cloning themselves it's impossible. And hiring more staff is even more impossible. The whole system is just beyond salvation.
The political fanboys are out here defending with all their might, eyes all foggy lol
Nah it's not some epic defense, police actually investigated this before and came back with no evidence of wrongdoing, so that's why. The investigation has to happen though, fraud is just hard to prove, that's the thing.
These guys slack off the whole year and only get busy during election season lol what are they even doing the rest of the time
Ugh I don't even want to swear at these idiots but... just stop already dude, the whole country's tearing you apart over this and you can't even get ONE thing right? seriously
seeing this from abroad and it's genuinely embarrassing for them ngl
They don't have a legal obligation to preserve it, but couldn't they just hit them with the Personal Information Protection Act violation??
Korean politics is wild, I swear every election cycle there's some new scandal
μλκΈ is right π this might be their worst one yet honestly
lmao not again π how do these people keep getting away with this stuff
this is actually insane... how is nobody being held accountable?
okay but can someone explain what they messed up this time? i'm confused lol
