The 6th Chief Executive Election will be held on the 8th of next month. The main polling station will be set up at the Wan Chai Convention and Exhibition for the Election Committee to vote. Taking into account the epidemic situation, the Registration and Electoral Office will set up a polling station at the Penny's Bay Community Isolation Facility for those subject to local isolation or quarantine. The measures affected the election committees who were unable to go to the main polling station to vote.
The Registration and Electoral Office stated that the Penny's Bay polling station is suitable for those who are quarantined at community isolation facilities, who are quarantined at quarantine facilities, who are undergoing home quarantine, who have returned from overseas and are undergoing quarantine at designated locations (such as quarantine hotels), and those who are subject to government "" "Restriction and Testing Declaration" must remain on the premises and be subject to compulsory testing by the electoral committee.
If it is confirmed that quarantine is required until the polling day, the Election Committee may seek help from the Registration and Electoral Office
The polling hours at the main polling station are from 9:00 am to 11:30 am, but the Penny's Bay polling station will close earlier at 10:30 am to allow sufficient time for the sterilization of the ballot papers and transport them to the central counting station at the convention and exhibition. Count the votes.
If the election committee wants to use the Penny's Bay polling station, they must stay at the Penny's Bay Community Isolation Facility on the day before the polling day and stay for one night, and vote at the polling station in the facility on the morning of the next polling day. The original isolation or quarantine premises shall continue to carry out the relevant isolation and quarantine.
In addition, the election committees who are only confirmed to be required to undergo isolation or quarantine on the polling day should contact the REO immediately to provide feasible assistance according to the situation, and arrange the election committees to vote as much as possible.
