From January to September 2017 he was intermittently chairman of her prefectural party Tomin First no Kai  and from 2009 to 2012 a member of the prefectural parliament for the constituency of North Tama I. Before that, he had been a member of the city parliament of Higashi-Murayama since 2003. In 2000 and 2012 he ran unsuccessfully for the national parliament .

Life

Noda, a graduate of Waseda University's Faculty of Education , worked briefly for a publishing house after graduating. From 2000 to 2001 he was Secretary of the House of Commons Yuriko Koike from Hyōgo 6, then a member of the Conservative Party (largely absorbed in the New Conservative Party in 2002; but Koike and Noda joined the Liberal Democratic Party directly in 2002 ). In the general election of 2000 , Noda ran for the Conservative Party in the neighboring constituency of Hyōgo 7, but was clearly subject to the social democratic incumbent Takako Doi (Doi 63%, Noda 21%).

In the city parliament election in the local Higashi-Murayama 2003 Noda ran successfully and was re-elected in 2007. He switched to prefecture politics in the 2009 parliamentary elections , in which he won a seat in his home constituency of North Tama I (3 seats) with the third highest share of votes behind incumbents of the Democratic Party and Kōmeitō . In 2012 he moved to the Tōkyō Ishin no Kai , which was formed in the prefecture parliament from members of both major parties , resigned as a prefectural member and ran for the Japanese Ishin no Kai in the national lower house election in 2012 in the domestic constituency of Tokyo 20 . He received around 21% of the vote and was therefore subject to the liberal democratic incumbent Seiji Kihara (40%) and the democratic candidate Kōichi Katō (25%). In the 2013 election , he tried to return to the Tokyo Prefecture Parliament as an Ishin candidate, but only received the fifth highest number of votes.

In the 2016 Tokyo gubernatorial election , Noda worked in Yuriko Koike's campaign office. After her successful election and assuming office as governor, she appointed him "Special Secretary" ( tokubetsu hisho ) in August 2016 . For the first time in January 2017, Noda took over the chairmanship of Koike's newly founded regional party Tomin First. When Koike himself took over the formal chairmanship of the party in June 2016, he became general secretary, after the Tomin-First victory in the 2017 parliamentary elections, he became party chairman again, when Koike stepped down from the chairmanship and became a “special advisor” (tokubetsu komon) to better separate the prefectural administration and party (and thus now the majority in parliament, which is supposed to control the executive) and to avoid criticism in this regard. On September 11, 2017, he resigned from the position of party chairman and was replaced by the Prefectural MP Chiharu Araki . According to his own statements, he wanted to be able to concentrate more extensively on his task as Koikes' special secretary. In March 2019, he resigned as "special secretary" and was proposed by Koike as a candidate for the chairmanship of the water supply company Tokyō Suidō Service ( 東京 水道 サ ー ビ eng; eng. "TSS Tokyo Water"; subsidiary of the Tokyo Prefecture Water Authority ).
