Hong Kong holds ‘patriots only’ elections | DW News

Democrats would love such a system in the U.S. with ‘Patriots’ only, or only candidates who say the election was not stolen, or January 6th was a real insurrection… They would define ‘Patriots’ just as they define gender, race and crime today, in their twisted Marxist thinking and ideology.

Hong Kong is holding its first local elections under a new ‘patriots only’ system. It’s designed to ensure only government-approved candidates run. The revised electoral system means people heading to the polls today will be choosing among a restricted slate of candidates loyal to Beijing. The local district council elections were seen as the last major political representative bodies chosen by the public. But an amendment passed in July effectively shut out pro-democracy candidates.
