 With a month to go before the general election, the Kishida administration, which is now in a "short-term limited administration," is in low spirits. His approval rating is quite low. The lineup of the cabinet is lackluster. Akira Amari, secretary general of the Aso faction, has taken control of the party. The money scandal has been ignored.
