Voter registration ended on May 2
The 2020 voter registration period ended on May 2, and the change of voter registration information has ended on the 2 April. In the past months, the 'yellow' pro-democracy camp and 'blue' pro-establishment camp had been mobilizing new voters to register.
The Civilian Volunteer Team was informed that there are currently over a thousand registrations in the catering industry had been bounced back and required re-submission of information. Many of the letters requesting replacement certificates did not specify the requirements and the format was irregular. In addition, the government arrangement for civil servants to work from home has worried voters that this may hinder the ability of 'yellow' pro-protesr shops to successfully register as a constituent voter.

Hong Kong Election Office to Hire Police to Work During Election
A Hong Kong Government official leaked information from the Election Office, saying that the office will be open to civil servents, particularly police officers who will be working in the election process, something unheard-of since the handover and clearly lists different jobs for police officers of different ranks.
This threatens the transparency of the elections and completely disrupts the checks and balances of the different public service departments.

Hongkongers set up a Facebook page to make fun of the Chief Executive hopeful's poor writing skill
Although most people in Hong Kong seldom pay much attention to the small-circle Chief Executive election, the substandard writing skill of the sole candidate, John Lee Ka-chiu, did stir up discussions and local people's interests.
In recent days, netizens created a public page on Facebook, titled "Daily Watch over Lee Ka-chiu's Chinese Writing Standard".
The page took a twisted approach to show "concerns" over this year's one-candidate-CE election.
It edited and even gave scores to the official posts on Lee's election page on Facebook.
Many of Lee's posts have seen heavily edited in red so that the language becomes more proper and readable.
To many people's surprise, Lee's election team actually took on many of these edits and amended their original writing.
Ah Chiu, (Pseudo name), administrator of the "Daily Watch" page expressed that since Lee failed to provide an election manifesto when he launched his election campaign, nor has he made meaningful contact with local citizens, his substandard writing skill, is perhaps, the only thing that people could remember.
