Sanae Takaichi assumed the office of Prime Minister in October 2025 after winning the LDP leadership election and has consolidated power through a February 2026 snap election that delivered the LDP a two-thirds supermajority in the lower house—the largest single-party seat total since 1955. This outcome followed earlier coalition instability and provided her with a clear legislative mandate for defense expansion, economic measures, and constitutional priorities. As of August 2026 she remains the active head of government, conducting summits, press conferences, and policy implementation. Isolated reports of health episodes and approval dips have surfaced but produced no credible challenges to her tenure or scheduled leadership votes. Traders pricing the “No” outcome at 91.5% reflect this consolidated parliamentary position and the absence of near-term removal mechanisms within the 2026 calendar.
