The district board elections were unveiled. Under the storm of anti-reforms, the turnout rate exceeded 70% this year, the highest in Hong Kong's history. It has been estimated in the past that the establishments will be at a disadvantage, and the result of the establishment of the faction is indeed "death and heavy", and it is also a "tsunami-style" fiasco. It can be said that this result is both unexpected and unexpected.

Among the district elections, many of the "Peoples" who have worked in the district for many years have been dismissed, including a number of current Legislative Council members and district board chairmen. In addition to He Junyi, who is out of his deeds, the DAB and the Federation of Trade Unions have all encountered extremely severe defeats. The reshuffle of the powers of the District Councils will have an overwhelming impact on the political situation in the future.

The four current Legislative Council members of the DAB, including Zhou Haoding, Zheng Yongzhen, Zhang Guofan and Liu Guoxun, have lost. (data picture)

The DAB has fallen into the hands of Li Huiqiong

As the largest party of the establishment system, the DAB has lost all of its current members of the Legislative Council, including Zhou Haoding, Zheng Yongzhen, Zhang Guofan and Liu Guoxun. Among them, Liu Guoxun was re-elected after being elected as a member of Xinsheng District in 2007. In 2016, he was elected to the District Council functional constituency (first). He was automatically elected without competition. As a result, this year's district election was unfortunately lost.

The Democratic Alliance for the Betterment of Hong Kong (DAB) Chairman Li Huiqiong defeated "Long Hair" Liang Guoxiong in the north of To Kwa Wan; Ke Chuangsheng confronted "Quick" Tan Dezhi in Guangde and won by less than 200 votes. The two were fortunate enough to protect the seats, but the DAB suffered a major defeat this time, and the party’s momentum has been seriously frustrated.

He Junyi and Mai Meijuan also dropped their elections this year. (data picture)

He Junyi and Mai Meijuan have vivid images

He Junyi, who was elected to Tucson Le Cui, defeated the Democratic Party member He Junren in 2015 as a member of the District Council and joined the Legislative Council in the following year. He Jun has always been out of his words and deeds, and has repeatedly made controversial remarks. He advocated "killing innocents" for those who support Hong Kong independence, and Mao Mengjing, a member of the Democratic Legislative Council, "has been used to eating the intestines". He was even more attacked in the 7.21 attack in Yuen Long. I took a handshake with the white man and became the target of public opinion.

The Federation of Trade Unions, Mai Meijuan, is also a well-established faction. Since 1994, he has been a district board member. It can be said that among the many establishments, the most unlikely one has been shot down.

In the Dispute of the Fugitive Offenders Ordinance, the founding faction supported the government to amend the law. As a result, the regulations failed hard and the government was "roaming." It has been reported that during the meeting with the founding party at the Government House in mid-June in June, Mai Meijuan made a swearword and said that when he explained the amendments, he was "everyday X". It is reported that she and Lin Zheng both fell. tears. As the plot was bizarre, Mai Meijuan once became a topical figure.

The Hong Kong Federation of Trade Unions currently operates two Legislative Council functional constituency seats, namely He Kai-ming and Lu Yi-hung. The two are also members of the Pak Ya and Tin Hung District respectively. However, this year they both lost and failed to re-elect.

The Federation of Trade Unions only has Guo Weiqiang living in the North Point and Fu Bao.

Tian Beichen also lost in this year's district election. (data picture)

Moderately established Tian Beichen is also not immune

Tian Beichen is more moderate among the establishments. After the merger of the two railways in 2007, he left the chairman of the KCRC and joined the political development. In 2008, he joined the Liberal Party to participate in the Kowloon West Legislative Council. He retired from the Liberal Party in 2010, and later became a member of the New Democratic Party, joined the regional work, and won the election in the Leiwan Discovery Constituency in 2011. In the 2012 Legislative Council Election, "Tian Er Shao" was successfully elected to New Territories West. He was re-elected in 2016 and retired from the New Democratic Party in 2017 to form a round table.

In the anti-reforms storm, "Tian Er Shao" is one of the few people who explicitly stated that the government should set up an independent investigation committee and repeatedly criticized the government's shortcomings. But in this "tsunami", Tian Beichen is still difficult to "survive."

Ye Aodong is the current chairman of the Yau Tsim Mong District Council, but the re-election of the sub-district failed. (data picture)

"Left family" Ye Aodong, the current district board chairman failed to re-elect

In addition to the current members of the Legislative Council, there are also districts and districts of the current district boards, including the DAB Ye Aodong. Ye was elected to the Jordan East District Council in 2011. He was elected as a Jordan South District Member after the demarcation of the reform in 2015. He replaced the Honourable Member of the DAB and became the Chairman of the Yau Tsim Mong District Council.

Ye Aodong can be said to be from the "Left Family". He is the son of former State Councilor Ye Guozhong and the nephew of the DAB elder Ye Guoqian. He also has many years of regional work experience and has served as a member of the Yau Tsim Mong District since 2008. In the 2016 Legislative Council election, the Kowloon West Constituency, Ye Aodong was only behind Jiang Lizhen in the list of candidates.
