昨日、都知事選の投開票が行われ、新知事が決まった。
Yesterday, vote casting and counting for the Tokyo gubernatorial election was held, and the new governor was decided.
選挙前の予想通り、舛添要一・元厚生労働相（６５）が、他の有力三候補、宇都宮健二・前日本弁護士連合会会長（６７）、細川護煕元首相（７６）、田母神俊雄・元航空幕僚長（６５）、らに圧倒的多数の差を付けて、選挙戦を制した。
As was anticipated, former health minister Yoichi Masuzoe, 65, won the election by a landslide, defeating three major candidates, former Japan Federation of Bar Associations President Kenji Utsunomiya, 67, former Prime Minister Morihiro Hosokawa, 76, and former Air Self-Defense Force Chief of Staff Toshio Tamogami, 65.
勝利した舛添氏には、２０２０年の東京五輪・パラリンピック開催に向けての準備、原発依存への対応、政治資金不正受給で辞任した猪瀬直樹前知事（６７）により傷つけられた東京都の信用回復など、多くの難問が待ち受けている。
Many difficult issues such as preparation for the 2020 Summer Olympics and Paralympics, response to nuclear power dependence, and restoring the reputation of the capital damaged by former Governor Naoki Inose, 67, who stepped down over money scandal lies ahead for Masuzoe.
同氏は、１２日に初登庁を行い、都知事として初の記者会見に臨む。
