SEOUL Cheap Nike Air Force 1 , May 2 (Xinhua) -- Thirteen South Korean lawmakers on Tuesday announced their defection from the minor conservative Righteous Party, with just a week left before a presidential election.
The lawmakers, who created the new party earlier this year, held a press conference in the parliamentary building, saying they will join the former ruling Liberty Korea Party and throw support behind Hong Joon-pyo, the party's candidate for the upcoming presidential election slated for May 9.
The Righteous Party was officially launched on Jan. 24 as 32 former Liberty Korea Party members Nike Air Force 1 Sale , who had voted for the impeachment bill on former President Park Geun-hye, divided the former ruling party.
The new conservative party drew much attention from voters as it was created by younger generation politicians who argue for new conservative values in the country, where conservative President Park was removed from office over corruption allegations.
Yoo Seong-min, the Righteous Party's presidential candidate, received a favorable evaluation following TV debates, but his support rate hovered around 5 percent Nike Air Force 1 Grey , the fifth among five major presidential candidates.
Yoo's colleague lawmakers demanded the merge of candidacies with Hong, the Liberty Party Korea candidate, but Yoo refused it and vowed to run the presidential race to the end.
In addition to the 13 members, two to three could reportedly defect the Righteous Party in the near future.
Hong recently emerged as a conservative candidate who can represent the conservative bloc as his support score came closer to Ahn Cheol-soo of the centrist People's Party.
Moon Jae-in, a longtime frontrunner and a candidate of the biggest Minjoo Party, widened his lead in recent polls Nike Air Force 1 White , more than doubling the approval rating of Ahn, a runner-up to Moon.

Lewis Hamilton roared back into serious contention for a fourth drivers' world title on Sunday when he drove to a -well-judged victory for Mercedes in a dramatic Spanish Grand Prix.
The three-time champion recovered after losing the lead from his 64th pole position to make the most of key strategic decisions and win with power and precision ahead of championship leader Sebastian Vettel of Ferrari.
"A fantastic job this weekend - thank you. The strategy was right on it," said Hamilton on his team radio.
"That's how racing should be and I loved it," said a happy Hamilton, who raced side by side with Vettel at Turn 1 after the German's final pit stop.
"This is what the sport needs to be every single race."
"Lewis saved the race with an incredible drive. The strategy was great Nike Air Force 1 Black , but it was the driver who won it," said Mercedes non-executive Chairman Niki Lauda.
Hamilton finished the 66-lap contest 3.5 seconds ahead of the four-time champion German, having blasted past him to regain the lead after 44 laps.
It was his second win in five races this year and the 55th of his career, and it brought him within six points of Vettel in the title race. The German now has 104 points and Hamilton has 98.
Australian Daniel Ricciardo finished third for Red Bull, more than a minute adrift of the leaders, ahead of Mexican Sergio Perez and his Force -India teammate Frenchman Esteban Ocon.
German Nico Hulkenberg came home sixth for Renault Nike Air Force 1 Red , ahead of compatriot Pascal Wehrlein of Sauber, who lost his place due to a time penalty for a pit-lane mistake during the race.
Spaniard Carlos Sainz was eighth on the road, but classified seventh, ahead of Russian Daniil Kvyat who did a superb job for Toro Rosso after starting at the back of the grid, and Frenchman Romain Grosjean of Haas.
Every driver, apart from those on the podium Nike Air Force 1 Mens , was lapped during an exhausting contest that saw Finn Kimi Raikkonen of Ferrari and last year's winner, Dutch teenager Max Verstappen, crash into retirement on the first lap.
Hamilton's Mercedes teammate, Finn Valtteri Bottas, also retired when his engine failed while he was running third.

"We have an absolutely rock solid opt-out from these things, so there is no prospect of Britain joining a common asylum process in Europe," Cameron told reporters on his arrival for the summit.
"We will have our own approach, our own way of doing things, keeping our own borders. It underlines the best of both worlds, the special status we have Nike Air Force 1 ," he told reporters.
"It is important that we help the continent of Europe to secure its external border ... that is why we are sending British ship just to do just that," he added.
Meanwhile, in a statement published ahead of the summit, Cameron called "the migrant crisis the greatest challenge facing Europe today" and elaborated Britain's position on this issue.
"Britain has not faced anywhere near the scale of migrants coming to Europe as other countries because we are out of Schengen and retain control of our borders," the sta.
