North Korea's ruling Workers' Party of Korea (WPK) has released posters promoting the election of deputies to the 14th Supreme People's Assembly (SPA) scheduled for March 10, the country's state-run Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) reported on Friday.
The KCNA on Jan. 9 reported the ruling party's decision to call the election according to the county's socialist Constitution.
This is the second parliamentary election since Kim Jong-un took power in 2012. It comes five years after the 13th SPA was formed on Mar. 9, 2014.
Kim Jong-un likely to take position 'formally' representing North Korea: Thae Yong-ho 2019-03-18 16:05 | North Korea North Korea elects top assembly members 2019-03-10 18:34 | North Korea
The KCNA said 99.97 percent of all eligible voters went to the polls then, except those on foreign tours or working at sea. A total of 687 deputies are elected, one from each constituency. It said the country's leader Kim Jong-un received 100 percent support in 2014.
The SPA is the highest sovereign authority in North Korea that has the right to legislate.
