Incorrect results[edit]

I know the results are referenced and all; but they seem to be incorrect judging from MIC official results or the government (MIC statistics department) statistics on elections. This should be corrected because the Lockheed election was, after all, the first time when the LDP lost its majority – at least for a few days. (My guess is: The seat numbers given in the article are from the post-election opening Diet session when independents had restored the LDP majority. And maybe vote totals have also been recalculated using the composition of the House by that time. That's not useless information; but the election article should contain the election results first, in my opinion. (and right now it doesn't contain much else for a very extraordinary election in many ways (Lockheed, only post-war election after a full term, Lockheed, LDP loses majority, Lockheed, the Kakumander debate and everything else (Lockheed) you may want to know about the shadow shogun of those decades) --Asakura Akira (talk) 15:21, 10 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
