I think Dai proposed the wording to persuade Zou
When Au Nuoxuan gave testimony this morning, he continued to talk about the second coordination meeting of Sindong. Zou Jiacheng asked Dai Yaoting why the sentence "actively using the power of the Basic Law to veto the budget" in the "35+ Project" document should be used "Actively use" the word instead of using the word "will".
Dai responded that even if only the word "positive" is used, "it is better than not taking one step forward." However, Dai Wei did not go further to explain what "one step forward" means.
Au explained that Dai Ying was trying to persuade Zou Jiacheng.
Zou proposed to vote with words during the meeting, but Lin Zhuoting's assistant, Zhuang Ronghui, did not respond, saying that he was not authorized to deal with this issue.
Au continued to point out that there was no consensus in the wording dispute.
After discussion, it is believed that Xindong can send 7 lists
Afterwards, everyone discussed that the district sent 6 or 7 rosters for the election, and believed that sending 7 rosters was a more optimistic target for winning.
Among them, some participants believed that the seventh list should be defined as the winners of the primary election, and that no electoral work should be started after the official registration for the Legislative Council election.
The Democratic Party and street workers were criticized at the meeting
The district also mentioned that in the meeting, "some people criticized the Democratic Party for many things in the past", such as saying that they "behaved like a rite" in the past.
In addition, street workers were also criticized in the meeting.
Asked whether there were other coordination meetings in the Xindong Constituency, the district said he only attended the first two meetings, and it was unclear whether there would be a third meeting.
