Coz in Beijing’s eyes, politicizing an election is wrong.......coz only Beijing should be able to do that.

hkers voting in progress! We’ll show our determination!

HK people are exercising our right to vote and our right for freedom of speech!

It just proves how much the Chinese Communist Party fears the voice of people being heard. Shame on the HK police and Hk government. Under the communist might of Xi, they can’t even accept what’s peaceful anymore. HongKong Democracy BoycottChina

Although facing crackdown from the government in every aspects of our life, HKers never give up any chance to show our determination and desire to freedom and democracy

The tyranny is doing everything it can to spread the fear. But this won't stop us fighting

Despite suppression, over 200,000 HKers have voted today. We’ll keep voicing out and fighting for democracy. StandWithHongKong VoteForHK

Hong Kong Government said this poll is violating security law, but Hongkongers stand up now and give CCP a middle finger

Thank you!

Hong kong is now a police state, which the popo has unlimited power given by CCPChina to do anything without any consequences. They are used as a tool to suppress dissidents, spread fear and make Hongkonger be afraid to speak freely.

Hong Kongers resist!

Add oil HK

nearly 230k ppl voted today!

We are Hong Kongers.

HKers are not scared off by NationalSecurityLaw

Show it to the world

Even though voting may not be useful for fighting for freedom and democracy, we still want to try all the ways. But obviously the totalitarian government doesn't allow the people.

Yet they cannot make the will of the people unseen. Over 220,000 HongKongers have voted, there will be more tomorrow. StandWithHongKong

HongKongers never give up

Hongkongers won't give up! We vote we fight we never surrender! StandWithHongKong

stronger force from CCP national security law, strong resistance and alliance from Hong Kong people StandWithHongKong

With the unlimited power of NationalSecurityLaw CCPSecurityLaw, CCP can instruct HKPoliceTerrorists to arrest anyone and seize anything else in universe. Not allowing primary of HK pro-democratic camp means CCP should be exterminated asap

HongKong has already been PoliceState They could do everything as they wanted and face no consequences Especially,the primary election has been held today No doubt is that HKPolice are spreading white terror to scare HongKongers

Hong Kong people tries each and every way to fight for freedom While CCP thugs go beyond lengths to suppress it BoycottChina

It is ridiculous that HK government officials said polling is violating National Security Law.

Are the police specifically for political persecution?

Even under the threat of HKPoliceBrutality, many HKers came out for the pollster

Exercising our civil right to vote has become illegal in Hong Kong

Great job HKers!

The truth is HK now HKPoliceState. Police use excessive unlawful force to disperse protesters, brutally beat arrested ppl, pepper spray & insult journalists, indiscriminate arrest of peaceful protesters. All are recorded & prove they aren't professional.

HK is persisting their faith in fighting against tyranny, resisting the white terror from CCP NationalSecueityLaw. Will the world step up & sanction CCP to support this fight on freedom & democracy ?

Over 130,000 voted at ⏰ 1800. Proud of you guys HongKongers 🤟🏼 primaryelection

In order to prevent the democratic camp from holding primary elections, the shameless CCP hopes to destroy it by vile means😤

A tyranny that won’t allow any chance for people to express their political views

Why Hong Kong pollster be raided? In fact, in CCP and HongKong government eyes, everyone are rioters but people who follow and believe in them. 🤦‍♀️

People in Hong Kong still want to have democracy.

To all sau zuk: HAVE YOU VOTED YET? Please remember to vote!!! StandWithHongKong

People of Hong Kong always treasure democracy & freedom & other universal values. That's why there're still many people coming out to vote today despite the police suppression. StandWithHK

U know that is totally a garbage when the government said this law only applicable for a minority of people in HK. So everyone who are on the democrats' side are the minorities? And see how police use excessive force to subdue defendless people?

He's a pollster, but he's also engaged in illegal activities. He's not being searched because he's a pollster. That's how fake news is produced

If anyone is shocked by the 'draconian tactics' of the Hong Kong/Chinese police, just be warned - we'll be seeing the same thing in the UK very soon.

Excellent work

Nobody cares.

Everyone knows there is no democracy but is voting a crime now in Hong Kong?

China 'is building a new Berlin Wall in Hong Kong with security law'Wu Jieh-min, a scholar in Taiwan, claimed Beijing was isolating Hong Kong with an invisible barrier just like how West Berlin was physically cut off from democratic West Germany by the Berlin Wall. Just like Trump wants it in the U.S. Dictators always feel insecure. Good, the appalling protesters pushed Beijing too far.... now they’ve got what’s coming to them.... Beijing was very very patient in the face of humiliation..... the people of HK need peace and stability... HK ppl use their tear, blood & life to prove China is a totalitarian reigme. HK is dying w/o global sanction of CCP & HK persecuted ppl & students are in deep threats of new security law. Pls provide protection to them. StandWithHK GlobalMagnitskyAct

Australia suspends extradition agreement with Hong Kong in response to new security lawScott Morrison said the decision “represents an acknowledgement of the fundamental change of circumstances in relation to Hong Kong, because of the new security law' It's great news. The UK now needs to confirm it's own arrangements regarding the BNO. The NationalSecurityLaw tramples HK's liberty and human rights. The law gives HK Gov infinite right to arrest anyone, ban any slogans, songs, remove books from libraries. As a Hongkonger, my dream is simple but difficult..

Australia suspends Hong Kong extradition treaty and offers visa extensionsAustralia has suspended its extradition treaty with Hong Kong, and offered visa holders from the territory a five-year extension with a pathway to permanent residency, in response to China's imposition of a national security law Good for them Good for Australia. But what about Bojo's offering a black British passport restricting movement outside of our tiny little island? Surely they won't choose Australia or Europe over the UK?
