The People Power Party announced on Tuesday that a total of eleven people registered as candidates for the party’s presidential primary. 

They include former labor minister Kim Moon-soo, Representatives Na Kyung-won and Ahn Cheol-soo, former Daegu Mayor Hong Joon-pyo and former party leader Han Dong-hoon. 

Acting President Han Duck-soo was not among the eleven who registered as a candidate for the primary that will nominate the candidate for the June 3 presidential elections. 

The party’s election committee will review the applications before announcing on Wednesday the list of candidates who will compete in the first round of the primary. 

Public opinion polls will be conducted next Monday and Tuesday to decide the four candidates who will advance to the second and final round of the primary.

Public opinion polls and votes from dues-paying members will count equally for the second round, which will select the winner on April 29. 

If a candidate wins the majority of votes, a winner will immediately be declared. 

If not, another round of public opinion polls and dues-paying member votes will be held on May 1 and 2, with the final candidate to be confirmed at a party convention scheduled for May 3.
