The People Power Party nomination management committee on the 22nd nominated former nomination committee chair Lee Jung-hyun as the candidate for integrated special mayor of South Jeolla–Gwangju and former Jeonju-gap party chapter head Yang Jeong-mu as the candidate for Jeonbuk State governor.
Nomination committee chair Park Deok-heum said this accordingly at a briefing at the Yeouido party headquarters that day. Ahn Tae-uk, former Gwangju city party chair, who had applied for the integrated South Jeolla–Gwangju mayor nomination, withdrew the application, confirming a sole nomination for former chair Lee, and for the North Jeolla governor nomination, former chair Yang applied alone.
With this, the People Power Party completed all nominations for 13 of the city and provincial governor candidates running in the June 3 local elections, except for three places—North Chungcheong, Daegu, and Gyeonggi—where primaries are underway.
The People Power Party also, regarding the National Assembly by-elections held alongside the local elections, recommended Kim Min-gyeong as the sole candidate in Asan-eul, South Chungcheong. In addition, Kim Seok-hun was recommended as the sole candidate in Ansan-gap, Gyeonggi, and Oh Ji-seong was recommended as the sole candidate in Gunsan–Gimje–Buan-gap, North Jeolla.
In addition, the People Power Party recommended Lee Nam-hyung as the sole candidate for Gwanak District head in Seoul and Cha Hwa-yeol as the sole candidate for Pyeongtaek mayor in Gyeonggi.
