April 18, 2022

The Candidate Eligibility Review Committee (CERC) today published a notice in the gazette to declare one nomination, of candidate John Lee, for the 2022 Chief Executive Election as valid.

 

Mr Lee received valid nominations from 786 Election Committee members.

 

The Returning Officer received one nomination form by the close of the nomination period of the Chief Executive election on April 16. The CERC has reviewed the candidate’s eligibility and determined the nomination as valid.

 

Separately, the Registration & Electoral Office received seven registrations of Election Committee ex-officio members arising from changes of specified offices’ holders. After review, the CERC determined that these seven registrations are valid.

 

Polling will take place on May 8. A main polling station will be set up at the Convention & Exhibition Centre in Wan Chai for Election Committee members to cast their votes.
