Less than three days after the election of the Legislative Council, the Democratic Party today (22nd) held a team canvassing campaign. Chairman Hu Zhiwei, former Chairman Li Yongda and Yang Sen all appeared. Hu Zhiwei said that the district election on Sunday is very important because all the constituencies have rivals and hope to express their important views on the future of Hong Kong society. He also said that the anti-reform exercise clearly draws the public's attention to the future of the community. Therefore, the vote represents how the public views the deep contradictions in Hong Kong.

Reiterating that the current contradiction is rooted in the government’s disregard of public opinion

Hu Zhiwei mentioned that the government has always regarded public opinion as nothing in the past few months. It only relied on the police to suppress the society. It did not solve the current dilemma by political means. It believed that this move made the one country, two systems subject to international suspicion. Hu Zhiwei said that everyone does not want to solve the problem with violence. Because violence can't solve the problem, he stressed that it is necessary to clarify the current conflicts and the root causes of contradictions. It is the attitude of the government that does not listen to the public opinion and makes the social grievances accumulate.

The Government has elected the "Crisis Management Committee" for the district to advise the EAC on postponing elections, voting or counting of votes. Hu Zhiwei hopes that all parties will exercise restraint on the day of the election. He said that many people on the online platform have called for the election to do a good job in the elections, so that the society has a relatively peaceful atmosphere. He does not want anything to undermine the election.
