Protests calling for a rerun of the June 3 local election after a ballot shortage entered their third consecutive day on Sunday.

Protesters who had blocked a polling station in Seoul's Songpa district for two nights and three days moved Friday to a vote-counting center.

The head of the Election Commission has pledged to step down after a shortage of ballots prevented some people from voting.

Thousands demanding a revote over Seoul ballot shortages surrounded a vote-counting center for a second day, disrupting access as a major K-pop festival draws huge crowds nearby

The ballot shortage has prompted the resignation of the head of the National Election Commission.
