In the district board elections, there are at least two people in the districts. The "White Area" which has not been automatically elected, and the anti-reforms have caused the situation in Hong Kong to deteriorate. The election has received much attention. Although some people think that the relationship between the district board election and the overall political situation is more alienated, but the history of the district election has been repeated, the political trend has been turned around many times.

"Hong Kong 01" selected five classic battles for everyone in the "Return" area, and see which scene has a chance to repeat this year.

Someone hit a single shot, and some people have repeatedly lost battles. Some people have emphasized that district board members are doing regional work, but some people have done long-term regional work and are still losing.

Li Xilin, who was selected for the first time in 2011, was already serving in the Democratic Party. She had already worked in the Chai Wenhan office earlier than 2008, but lost about 500 votes for the first time. The assistant was not artificial, but Li Xilin continued to do the job and was re-elected in 2015.

In the face of the previous winner Ou Licheng Li, the main problem of traffic

In the year, Huafu District was renamed Huafu South District, and the opponent was also the winner of 2011 and the European Union of Hong Kong Island Federation.

Wah Fu is an old estate. Apart from the problem of an aging population, there are also repairs and support for housing estates, not to mention the traffic problems that have plagued the Southern District for a long time.

Between the two elections, Li Xilin focused on regional issues, especially traffic issues, and made his popularity growing in the region.

The Democratic Party gradually achieved results in the Central and Western and Southern Districts of Hong Kong Island. On the day of the 2015 election, everyone also had certain expectations for Li Xilin’s performance. The elections on the same day went on as usual, but at night it was very tense and even became one of the focal points of Hong Kong.

Wah Fu Estate is an old estate village. Apart from the ageing of the population, there are also redevelopment related matters to be dealt with. (data picture)

The number of votes is very close to the voter's initiative to "add time" to recount

It turns out that Ou Licheng and Li Xilin have been very close to each other. In addition, there is a problem ticket, and the counting center is filled with tension.

The results of the first counting of votes were very close. The station director took the initiative to re-count the votes. Due to the rare "additional time" of the "Card", the constituency became the focus of late night news. In the end, Li Xilin lost 1,628 votes to 1,632 votes by 3 votes.

The Democratic Alliance for Betterment of Hong Kong and the Federation of Trade Unions represented Huang Caili.

No matter whether it is an assistant of a member or a director of community development, the labor is not high, and the defeat also means that life is arduous in the next few years. The husband of the Democratic Party decided to work as a teacher. The "posting money" allowed her to continue to focus on regional affairs, making Li Xilin a minority community director candidate who has been working in the region for many years.

This year, Li Xilin continued to be selected by Hua Funan. The opponent is no longer the Ou Licheng who has been fighting for many years, but the Democratic Alliance for Betterment of Hong Kong and the Federation of Trade Unions, Huang Caili.
