This morning, voters across the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) headed to the polls as voting kicked off for the eighth-term Legislative Council (LegCo) election. A total of 90 members will be elected to shape the region’s legislative agenda.
Candidates have campaigned on a range of issues, from economic growth and housing to digital innovation and community services. With polls open throughout the day, here’s what to watch:
- Voter turnout – will participation exceed the previous term?
- Newcomers vs. incumbents – how many fresh faces will enter LegCo?
- Policy spotlight – which issues will drive the final results?
Results are expected later this evening, providing a real-time snapshot of public sentiment and setting the legislative priorities for the HKSAR’s next four years.
