While participating in voting for the 22nd general election, the former president said, "Korean politics does not match the overall level of Korea. Other sectors have joined the ranks of advanced countries, but the political field is too ideological." He visited the Nonhyeon 1-dong 3rd polling station located in the basement level 1 of the Seoul Southern Regional Headquarters of the National Pension Service in Gangnam-gu, Seoul, together with his wife Kim Yoon-ok. It is near their residence in Nonhyeon-dong.

Dressed in a black suit, former President Lee took the elevator down and cast his vote together with Mrs. Kim. When asked to evaluate the Yoon Seok-youl administration, he said, "I cannot definitively say they are doing well, but I believe they are doing their best," adding, "Any government finds it very difficult to work if the legislature does not cooperate."

Regarding former President Moon Jae-in’s criticism of the Yoon Seok-youl administration and his campaign support for Democratic Party candidates related to the general election, Lee refrained from specific comments, saying, "I don’t think it’s necessary to evaluate what politicians say," and added, "Now is the time to unite our strength."
