House of Councillors Election 2010 Minna-no-ta Party made a major breakthrough
July 11, 2010, Tokyo, Japan - Yoshimi Watanabe, leader of Your Party, brims with confidence as he watches the early returns of Sunday's upper house election in Tokyo on July 11, 2010. Half of the upper chamber's 242 seats are up for grabs. The vote won't directly affect the ruling party's grip on power because the Democratic Party of Japan has a majority in the more powerful lower house. But a weak showing could undermine the party's ability to pass legislation and lead to policy deadlocks. (Photo by Natsuki Sakai/AFLO) [3615] -mis-
