minus-squareERROR: Earth.exe has crashedlinkfedilinkEnglish1•edit-25 days agoVoting to end martial laws was not unanimous. It was 190 out of 300, 110 of which weren’t able to get in the building. Impeachment in South Korea requires 2/3 supermajority, then it goes to the Supreme Court. The president’s party has 108 members in the national assembly. They’d need 8 defectors from the party to impeach. Then it goes to the Supreme Court, which is probably the easier step compared to 2/3 of legislature.
