Everything to know about the April 8 eclipse in Atlantic Canada | SaltWire #eclipse #atlanticcanadaSEOUL - South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol cast his ballot as two days of early voting for next week's parliamentary elections kicked off on Friday, in which his ruling party seeks to retake a majority in the opposition-controlled assembly.

Stakes are high for Yoon as his People Power Party is aiming to win a majority in the single-chamber, 300-seat assembly, though polls show the elections too close to call. With a 167 seat majority, the main opposition Democratic Party had passed dozens of contentious bills, including a nursing law vetoed by Yoon and his party.

"Through the highest-ever turnout in early voting history, let us show those who ignore the law and the people the great power of good citizens who have lived and obeyed the law," Han said after casting his own vote in a Seoul college town."Our party doesn't have criminals to protect."
