LDP Wins Majority of Upper House in Japan

Japan's Liberal Democratic Party won a majority of seats in the upper house, during Sunday's elections.

This gives them a majority in both the upper and lower houses.

Prime Minister Shinzo Abe has been working on reforming the economy and his programs have already seen positive results.

The people responded to it by giving his party more power, allowing the LDP to do even more.

Abe hopes to continue the economic reforms as well as amending the constitution to allow for a stronger less passive military.
