Minyan polls have been accused of sniping or inciting Baiyun six fingers do not rule out violations of the law must be fully considered

The Legislative Council elections will be held on the 19th of next month. The Hong Kong Institute of Public Opinion conducted the first round of election surveys. The results showed that only 34% of the respondents indicated that they would "definitely vote." It accounts for 52% of the total respondents, a 30-year low.

After the investigation was completed, the Hong Kong Minyan was attacked by a pro-organized newspaper, alleging that the Minyan was involved in inciting others not to vote or to vote in vain.

ICAC Commissioner Bai Yunliu said in an interview today (29th) that the possibility of violations of the law by the relevant agencies is not ruled out, and that the ICAC has not grasped the unpublished information of the Civil Research Institute, whether there is any involvement in inciting others not to vote or to cast invalid votes. The content, if the poll contains the above elements after it is published, or violates the "Elections (Corrupt and Illegal Conduct) Ordinance", "First of all, we don’t know that the poll is based on a point, or in fact it is a point of inquiry, or he retrieves the information and returns it. After that, it will be used or distributed. I think we have to consider it all."

Is it difficult to regulate mainland election bribery?

Bai Yun's six fingers are hypothetical questions

The Independent Commission Against Corruption announced today that the former Legislative Council Member Xu Zhifeng and former District Council Member Yau Man-jun, who has been issued a warrant by a magistrate, and who has left Hong Kong, are suspected of violating section 27A of the Election (Corrupt and Illegal Conduct) Ordinance, that is, "in the election During the period, public activities are used to incite another person not to vote or to cast invalid votes."

Bai Yun said that even if the person involved is overseas, the ICAC will still take enforcement actions.

The government announced today (29th) that it will set up ticketing stations at Liantang, Luohu, and Futian ports. There are concerns that local law enforcement agencies may not regulate election bribery in the Mainland.

Bai Yunliu said that this is a hypothetical question, and election bribery and other illegal situations may not necessarily occur in the Mainland. "Because everyone lives in a scattered state, the scope of the electoral law is not limited to Hong Kong."
