TOKYO, Feb. 8 (Xinhua) — Japan’s ruling coalition of Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) and its partner Japan Innovation Party is expected to secure a majority of seats in the House of Representatives in Sunday’s general election, public broadcaster NHK said, citing its exit poll.<\/p>\n

Based on exit polls and other analyses, the ruling bloc is projected to win between 302 and 366 seats, meeting its target of securing a majority of 233 seats, NHK said.<\/p>\n

For the LDP alone, the party is expected to win its single-party majority in the lower chamber, NHK said.<\/p>\n

On the election day, NHK conducted an exit poll at over 4,000 polling stations nationwide, gathering responses from approximately 340,000 voters out of 571,000 surveyed — a 59.7-percent response rate. ■<\/span><\/p>\n
