Japan LDP loses majority in parliament after Lockheed fallout
Japan's ruling Liberal Democratic Party fails to win a majority, securing 249 seats in a 511-seat House, with independents likely to prop up governance. The party remains largest but turbulent internal divisions pit pro Miki forces against Fukuda critics over the Lockheed payoffs scandal. Former leaders Tanaka and Hashimoto win re election amid graft indictments.
