Special Public Opinion Poll — published on Nikkei

44% of the total "do not approve" of the reshuffling; members of the 2nd Kishida cabinet and the LDP (Liberal Democratic party) executives. It was significantly higher than the 30% of those who said to "approve." While 76% of respondents think the new cabinet members and LDP executives "have not dispelled" concerns over their relationship with the Unification Church, compared to only 13% who think they "have dispelled" those concerns. The Cabinet's approval rating was 57%, down 1 point from the previous survey in July.
