The Election Committee subsector elections were held today (19th), the first election after the electoral reform, and more than 1,000 electoral committee seats have been settled.
The remaining 13 of the 40 subsectors are in competition, and about 4,800 people are eligible to vote today. 364 election committees were elected from 412 candidates.
The most competitive subsector is the social welfare sector, with 23 candidates competing for 12 seats; followed by the medical and health services sector, with 24 candidates competing for 14 seats.
The two non-establishment candidates who are unique in this election are both in the social welfare sector. They are the new thinking Di Zhiyuan and the chairman of the Sai Kung District Council Zhou Xianming. They are worthy of attention.
Voting arrangements are also different from the past. There are new regulations that prohibit inciting others to vote in vain or not to vote, and for the first time, electronic voting is adopted, and special care teams are set up for the elderly and other people with disabilities.
The voting time has been shortened by 6 hours compared with previous years, and it will end at 6 o'clock in the evening. I believe that all results will be released before midnight.
The functions of the new election committee are also different. In addition to electing the next chief executive as usual, all candidates for the Legislative Council must also be nominated by them, and 40 of them will be directly elected.
"Hong Kong 01" will continuously update the voting status.

[08:45] Chief Executive Carrie Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor went to the Wan Chai Convention and Exhibition to inspect the polling stations, saying that this is the first election after the election reform, which has multiple meanings and will bring a new situation to Hong Kong. He described the improved electoral system to ensure "patriots Govern Hong Kong" and lay a solid foundation for the subsequent elections of the Legislative Council and the Chief Executive.
She pointed out that this morning, she deliberately went to one of the voting stations to cheer her colleagues on the new measures before the voting officially started.
In the past, anti-China chaos in Hong Kong was elected through loopholes in the old electoral system. After the electoral system is improved, it will be ensured that patriots will rule Hong Kong.
She admitted that the number of electoral committees to be elected today is not many, but it is very important because in the future, the electoral committee will not only elect the chief executive, but will also be responsible for electing some members of the Legislative Council.
