Li Pengguang: It is necessary to pay attention to whether there will be trouble in the afternoon.

Beforehand, the Government paid close attention to the issue of public security on election day and sent police officers to patrol. As of 2 pm, the polling stations in Hong Kong were generally calm and conflict-free. Li Pengguang said that it is difficult to say whether there will be troublemakers in the afternoon or at night. However, if any camp members take the initiative to provoke law and order problems or hinder the operation of the polling station, it means that the candidates who are representatives of the camp will have a bad choice. Big motives come out of trouble.
