문대통령 8일에 사전 투표…청와대 "싱가포르 방문 여부와 무관"<br /><br /> Staying with the June 13 local elections.<br />The nation's top office announced today, President Moon Jae-in will participate in early voting and cast his ballot on Friday.<br /><br /> "President Moon's decision to take part in early voting is to boost voter turnout, which is usually as low as 50 percent, even though it's a nationwide election."<br /><br /> The liberal leader will be the first sitting president to take part in early voting since the system was introduced in April, 2013.<br />According to the Cheongwadae, many of Moon's aides, including Presidential Chief of Staff Im Jong-seok, national security adviser Chung Eui-yong, and chief economic adviser Jang Ha-sung will also cast their ballots in advance.<br /> The spokesperson insisted, however, that the President's early voting has absolutely nothing to do with a potential visit to Singapore... to join his American and North Korean counterparts.<br />That summit is scheduled for the day before the election, June 12th. <br />
