Japan Politics Elections
A TV director holds a signboard reading "Six minutes," notifying a TV crew to conclude a TV interview with Japanese Prime Minister Taro Aso, leader of the ruling Liberal Democratic Party, in front of photographers and a TV showing live broadcasting from the Japan's main opposition party while Aso and senior party leaders observe the parliamentary elections ballot counting at the LDP party headquarters in Tokyo, Japan, Sunday, Aug. 30, 2009. Aso conceded defeat in elections Sunday as media exit polls indicated the opposition had won by a landslide, sending the conservatives out of power after 54 years of nearly unbroken rule amid widespread economic anxiety and desire for change.
