Prime Minister's political tenure is hanging in balance, as rumors circulate about a potential resignation if the ruling party fails to maintain more than half the seats in the upcoming polls. The conjecture, though unconfirmed, is causing ripples in the political landscape of Japan, sparking debates on possible successors and policy changes. The timing of this news is crucial as it comes ahead of key policy implementation.

In Japan, maintaining more than half the seats by the ruling party is seen as a sign of confidence in the Prime Minister's leadership. Resignation of Prime Minister due to losing party majority is not uncommon and mirrors the high standards of political responsibility. The public is highly engaged and interested in these events, emphasizing stability, continuity, and the ability to implement policy smoothly.

In contrast to Japan, in countries like the US, there is no obligatory link between party majority in Congress and the term of the President. The two are separate features of the government, and losing a majority in Congress does not automatically lead to the resignation of the President.
