Japan shifts left as Democrats gain in parliament
In a Sunday's election Japan's Democratic Party won a record vote and formed a working majority, with Liberals and Left-Socialists gaining seats. Conservatives lost ground, and the Left-Socialists surged to 15 seats, reshaping postwar policy toward the United States and constitutional reform. The vote sets up Prime Minister Ichiro Hatoyama to form a one-party cabinet amid talks of rearming and emperor status. Final unofficial results show Democrats 186 seats, Liberals 61, Left-Socialists 50, Right groups weaker, with 37,000 supporters beyond. The outcome signals a pro-Western alignment while possible constitutional revisions loom.
