Bigger the sash, bigger the election win in Japan?
FUKUOKA, Japan - Veteran Liberal Democratic Party lawmaker Kunio Hatoyama, wearing a wide sash bearing his name, shakes hands with his supporters in Kurume, Fukuoka Prefecture, on Aug. 18, the start of the official campaign for the Aug. 30 general election. Most candidates including veteran politicians wear name sashes in elections in Japan. Many of Hatoyama's supporters wear headbands that read ''Victory,'' another practice that is commonly seen in elections in Japan. (Kyodo)
