The day has finally come - it’s Wednesday, September 20th and the LDP elections are today. As the Daily Yomiuri points out, the race is essentially between Taro Aso and Sadakazu Tanigaki for second place. Yesterday, as the two campaigned, Abe made the announcement that Japan would ban cash transfers from its financial institutions to 15 North Korean-linked financial institutions and trading firms. Of course, China is unhappy with this move.

We’ll be using our brand new del.icio.us account to keep track of these, and many more links. If you’d like to suggest a story to us, you can always do that as well. Have a great election day!

Edit: Abe has been elected!
