Carrie Lam Uses Emergency Law to Delay Hong Kong's Legislative Election for One Year, Further Arrangement to be Made by Beijing
The Hong Kong SAR Government announced the postponement of the Legislative Election one day after 12 pro-democracy candidates, including incumbent lawmakers of Civic Party, were barred from running in the election.
The HKSAR government has particularly cited the difficulty for 600,000 senior citizens and registered Hong Kong voters in China to cast their ballots during the coronavirus outbreak in Hong Kong.
This is the second time Carrie Lam invoked the Emergency Regulations Ordinance in less than a year. In October 2019, the HKSAR government bypassed the legislature to enforce a mask ban at the height of the Anti-ELAB movement.
In a survey result released by Hong Kong Public Opinion Research Institute (#PORI) on the same day, 73% of the respondents with a pro-democracy orientation did not want to postpone the LegCo election.
The nomination period ends on 31 July, but many nominees have yet to receive any confirmation of their candidacy.
Tam Yiu Chung, member of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress, had stated on 21 July that many Hong Kong citizens had moved to the Greater Bay Area, and have no permanent residence in Hong Kong. According to data from the Census and Statistics Department, as of mid-2019, about 540 thousand Hong Kong citizens usually stay in Guangdong Province, with only 129 thousand (24 %) being part of Hong Kong's resident population.
According to article 28 of the Legislative Council Ordinance, "A natural person is not eligible to be registered as an elector in the register of geographical constituencies unless, at the time of applying for registration, the person satisfies the Electoral Registration Officer that the person ordinarily resides in Hong Kong; and that the residential address notified in the person’s application for registration is the person’s only or principal residence in Hong Kong.
