​
SEOUL, April 11 (Yonhap) -- The main opposition Democratic Party (DP) retained a majority in the National Assembly in Wednesday's general elections in another major setback for the ruling People Power Party (PPP) and President Yoon Suk Yeol.
​
The DP won 161 out of 254 directly contested seats, while the PPP won only 90 seats. Including proportional seats, the DP and its satellite party garnered 175 seats and the PPP and its satellite party clinched 108 seats in the 300-member National Assembly.
​
The Rebuilding Korea Party led by scandal-tainted former Justice Minister Cho Kuk, considered as part of the opposition bloc, won 12 proportional seats, while the New Reform Party led by ousted former PPP leader Lee Jun-seok clinched two seats.
​
The results illustrated the seriously soured public sentiment toward the Yoon administration just two years after he came into office, with the PPP barely managing to prevent the broader opposition bloc from taking a two-thirds majority.
​
In the previous elections four year ago, the then ruling DP also clinched a landslide victory by securing a combined 180 seats with its satellite party while the United Future Party, the PPP's former name, and its sister party got 103 seats.

​
In the proportional race for 46 seats, the PPP's sister People Future Party garnered 37 percent, followed by the DP's sister Democratic United Party with 27 percent and Cho's Rebuilding Korea Party with 24 percent.
A total of 67 percent of the total 44.28 million eligible voters cast their ballots, the highest voter turnout for general elections in 32 years, according to the National Election.
​
This year's vote carried extra weight for the PPP as a failure to regain a majority could potentially render the Yoon administration a lame duck for the remaining three years of his single five-year term, ending in 2027.
The PPP has pleaded for voter support, imploring that the Yoon administration has been unable to push its reform agenda properly forward for the past two years due to the uncooperative parliament under opposition control.
​
The DP, on the other hand, has urged voters to pass stern judgment on what it calls the "incompetent" Yoon administration, accusing it of causing the economy and the livelihoods of the people to worsen seriously and mishandling a series of controversial issues for the past two years.
​
Following the release of the official results, PPP leader Han Dong-hoon resigned to take responsibility for the overwhelming defeat.
​
"I apologize to people on behalf of our party, which fell short of receiving people's support," Han said during a press conference at the PPP's headquarters in western Seoul.
​
"I solemnly accept the will of the people and deeply reflect on myself. I take full responsibility for the election results and step down."

​
Following the announcement of his victory against former Land Minister Won Hee-ryong of the PPP in Incheon's Gyeyang-B district early
Thursday, DP Chairman Lee emphasized that he will stop the regression of the country's state affairs and make it move toward the future once again.
​
Cho, the former justice minister, also hailed the exit poll results as a victory for the people.
​
"The people have won," Cho said after watching the exit polls Wednesday. "The people have made their intent clear that it is a verdict handed down to the Yoon Suk Yeol government."
​
Cho said the results showed that the people can "no longer put up with the regression" of the government, urging Yoon to humbly accept the election outcome.

​
In the wider Seoul area, considered the primary battleground that ultimately shapes the election outcome, the DP swept 90 out of 122 constituencies.
​
The DP also grabbed 53 seats in Gyeonggi Province with 60 seats at stake. The region is traditionally considered a stronghold for the liberal party.
​
In contrast, some PPP candidates emerged victorious in some districts in the region after closely contested races.
​
In Seoul's Dongjak-B district, Na Kyung-won of the PPP secured a victory against DP candidate Ryu Sam-young.
​
In a surprise outcome, Lee Jun-seok, an ousted former leader of the PPP, also secured his first-ever parliamentary seat in the Hwaseong-B district in Gyeonggi Province.

[앵커]

22대 총선, 더불어민주당 압승, 국민의힘 참패로 마무리됐습니다.

지역구와 비례 위성정당 의석을 합쳐 민주당은 175석을 얻어 입법 권력을 연장하게 됐고, 국민의힘은 108석을 얻어 개헌 저지선을 가까스로 지켜내는 데 그쳤습니다.

총선 결과를 추재훈 기자가 전해 드립니다.

[리포트]

민심이 향한 곳은 '정권 심판'이었습니다.

21대 총선에 이어 민주당의 단독 과반 승리, 원내 1당 확보를 기준으로는 20대 총선부터 3연승입니다.

민주당은 지역구에서만 161석을 얻었고, 비례 위성정당 14석까지 총 175석을 얻어 '입법 권력'을 연장했습니다.

국민의힘은 '야당 심판'을 호소했지만 총 108석으로 '개헌 저지선' 101석을 간신히 지키는 데 그쳤습니다.

지역별로 보면 48석이 걸린 서울에서 민주당이 37석, 국민의힘이 11석을 얻었습니다.

인천·경기에서는 민주당이 65석으로 8석의 국민의힘을 앞섰습니다.

격전지 충청권에서는 민주당이 21석, 국민의힘은 6석에 그쳤습니다.

호남과 제주에서는 민주당이 31석을 싹쓸이했고, 보수 성향이 강한 영남에서는 국민의힘이 59석으로, 5석의 민주당을 앞섰습니다.

강원에선 민주당 2석, 국민의힘 6석입니다.

다만 민주당의 비례 위성정당 더불어민주연합에 함께한 타당 출신 네 명은 기존 정당으로 복귀할 예정입니다.

제3지대에서는 개혁신당이 이준석 후보가 승리한 경기 화성을 1석, 비례 의석 2석까지 총 3석을 얻었습니다.

새로운미래는 세종갑에서 당선된 김종민 후보로 지역구 1석을 기록했습니다.

진보당에서는 민주당과 지역구 단일화를 했던 울산북 윤종오 후보 1명이 원내에 진출했습니다.

녹색정의당은 지역구, 비례 의석 획득에 모두 실패해 원외 정당으로 전락한 반면, 비례정당으로 나선 조국혁신당은 12석을 차지했습니다.

범야권 총 192석, 무소속 당선자는 없었습니다.
