History
[edit]Throughout its history, Yeongdeungpo A has voted for members of both liberal and conservative parties, however the liberalDemocratic Party's dominance in recent elections has made it a safe district for the Democratic Party in recent years.[1]Chang Suk-hwa of the centrist-liberalReunification Democratic Partywas the first member to represent the constituency, and won re-election in1992.However, he was defeated by the conservativeNew Korea Party's Kim Myung-seop in1996.Kim won re-election in2000as a member of the liberalMillennium Democratic Party.He was succeeded by Ko Jin-hwa of the conservativeGrand National Party,who won in the2004election.
In the course of the2008 South Korean legislative election,incumbent Ko Jin-hwa, a moderate member of the Grand National Party was not nominated for re-election in the Yeongdeungpo A constituency.Jeon Yeo-ok,a staunch conservative considered to be a member of the party's right-wing, was nominated in the constituency instead.[2]Jeon went on to win the constituency in2008.Jeon left theSaneuri Party(successor to the Grand National Party) ahead of the2012 legislative electionafter losing the party's nomination for the constituency to Park Sun-kyu.[3][4]However,Kim Young-jooof the liberalDemocratic United Partywon the general election, defeating Park Sun-kyu by more than 7 points.[5]Kim won re-election in2016[6]and2020,widening her margin of victory to 18 points.[7][8]
Kim Young-joo left the Democratic Party ahead of the2024 South Korean legislative election,[9][10]citing that she felt belittled and humiliated by the party's leadership after she was informed that her performance in the National Assembly was evaluated as "among the bottom 20 percent" by the party.[11]She officially joined the ruling conservativePeople Power Partyon March 4, 2024.[12]She subsequently ran as the People Power Party candidate for Yeongdeungpo A in the 2024 legislative election, but was defeated by Chae Hyeon-il of the Democratic Party.[13][14]
