Campaigning for Dec. 14 Japanese general election begins

YOKOHAMA, Japan - Photo taken on Dec. 2, 2014, shows people clapping their hands as they listen to a speech by a candidate running for the Dec. 14 general election in Yokohama, near Tokyo, at the start of the official campaigning. Prime Minister Shinzo Abe's Liberal Democratic Party aims at another victory, while the opposition camp will try to stop one-party dominance by the LDP, which held nearly 300 of the 480 seats in the House of Representatives before it was dissolved two weeks ago.
