(Zero Hedge)—After the impeachment of South Korea’s president Yoon Suk Yeol in December and his removal from office in April, his conservative People Power Party has stayed behind in the polls.
The lead in this election cycle is with the Democratic Party of Korea, the party of former president Moon Jae-in.
However, as Statista’s Katharina Buchholz shows in the chart below, in the last weeks leading up to the election next Tuesday, the conservative candidate has caught up again, as seen in polling by Gallup Korea.

The change could be in relation to the conservatives attempting a last-minute change in candidate, to former prime minister Han Duck-soo.
The party leadership’s reported belief that Han is more electable might not be justified, however, as polling soared after original candidate Kim Moon-soo prevailed despite the attempt in an internal vote two weeks ago.
The People Power Party has been described as in turmoil after the impeachment crisis.
Han had acted as president during this time.
Democratic frontrunner Lee Jae-myung meanwhile is facing criminal trials in connection to election law, perjury and a property development scandal.
At Last, a Company With Integrity in the Gold IRA Industry
For several years, I’ve been vetting out precious metals companies in search of the best. I believe in gold and silver but it’s hard to find integrity in the Gold IRA industry. The vast majority operate with shady tactics and gigantic spreads that take advantage of Americans who simply want to protect their life’s savings.
I’ve found a handful that I like and I’ve worked with some of them. By no means would I “unrecommend” them because, again, I vetted them out and found them to be above the fold. Unfortunately, it isn’t hard to be better than the rest when the rest are so darn awful.
After years of searching, I finally found a company that truly operates with integrity. Augusta Precious Metals has three important attributes that set them far above the competition:
- Non-Commissioned Sales Team: I cannot stress how important and unique this is. With just about every other company in the Gold IRA industry, the sales teams make commission from every account they open. This means they steer their clients toward the gold and silver products with the highest commission. With Augusta Precious Metals, the team is solely focused on putting the best gold and silver for their clients into their IRA. They get paid to serve the best interests of the Gold IRA client, NOT their own commission pay.
- Incredibly Low Fees: Most Americans would be shocked if they knew the spread other Gold IRA companies charge. Augusta charges just 5% versus up to 45% elsewhere.
- No Pressure, No Gimmicks: There’s an understanding among most in the Gold IRA industry that fear and pressure is the way to go. Augusta Precious Metals takes a sober approach when working with clients because they hold integrity in the highest possible regard. This is why they don’t offer gimmicks like “free” or “bonus” silver. It’s also why they do not apply pressure tactics to get quick sales. Their educational and transparent approach to doing business is exceedingly rare in the Gold IRA industry.
