The Legislative Council election will be held on December 19, and Chief Executive Carrie Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor said today (23rd) that several border crossing stations will be set up for Hong Kong residents living in the Mainland to return to Hong Kong to vote.
She said that the voting process is conducted in a "closed-loop" manner. Those who wish to vote at the port must register in advance and can only stay at the polling station on that day. They must return to the mainland immediately after voting and be exempt from quarantine.
The government expects to announce the detailed arrangements within this week. I believe that the port ticketing station will be a success. Lam stressed that the port ticketing station arrangement is purely a one-time convenience measure and has nothing to do with the increase in the voter turnout rate. I believe it will have little effect on the voter turnout rate.
"Closed-loop" voters must register first if they want to vote
Before attending the guild, Carrie Lam said that there is basically no possibility of normal customs clearance with the Mainland before December 19. Therefore, the government is actively studying arrangements to facilitate voting for Hong Kong residents in the Mainland.
Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor emphasized that the measures are only a one-off special plan, and the ticketing station will be located at the closed border control point to avoid the control point that still has people coming and going.
She said that it is also considering the amount of processing to be processed at that time, so voters must register in advance to indicate which port polling station to vote at, and hope to announce the details within this week.
She said that the central government is happy to help Hong Kong residents who need to be quarantined for 14 days when returning to the Mainland, hoping to exempt them from quarantine for 14 days.
She said that the voting process will be a "closed loop." Voters who return to Hong Kong to vote can only stay at the polling station and cannot enter the community. They must return to the mainland immediately after casting their votes.
Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor emphasized that the arrangement is purely a convenience measure and has nothing to do with increasing the turnout rate. He also believes that it will have little effect on the turnout rate.
