Scandal-hit ex-minister Matsushima to retain seat

TOKYO, Japan - Former Justice Minister Midori Matsushima, a candidate of the ruling Liberal Democratic Party in the lower house election, celebrates in her electoral district in Tokyo's Sumida Ward on the night of Dec. 14, 2014, after securing victory in the election. Matsushima resigned from the Cabinet post in October less than two months after assuming it over allegations of violating the election law by distributing paper fans to constituents in the past, which could count as a donation banned under the law.
