13日の沖縄県知事選で与党などが推した新人の古謝玄太氏が当選確実となったことを受け、推薦した各党から安堵(あんど)や歓迎の声が相次いだ。自民党は新県政への全面的な支援を表明。一方、敗れた現職の玉城デニー氏を支えた野党は、米軍普天間飛行場(沖縄県宜野湾市)の名護市辺野古移設が一段と進むことに危機感を示した。

自民の鈴木俊一幹事長は党本部で記者団に「重視した知事選で勝利を収めるか敗退するかは大きな影響がある」と強調。「古謝氏が訴えた暮らしの向上が実現できるよう全力でバックアップする」と語った。日本維新の会の吉村洋文代表は「沖縄を前に進めてほしいという期待の表れだ」とのコメントを出した。

国民民主党の榛葉賀津也幹事長も談話を出し、玉城氏を念頭に「基地問題をはじめ政治的な対立に終始せず、国と対話を重ね、現実的な解決を図ることが重要だ」と指摘。参政党の神谷宗幣代表は「対立候補(の玉城氏)に期待した県民の気持ちもくみ取る県政を期待したい」と求めた。

これに対し、共産党の田村智子委員長は党本部で記者団に「大変悔しい」と述べた。辺野古移設断念を迫り続けるとし、「国の言いなりで県政を進めるのか、大きな問題になってくる」とけん制した。
