[HKers’ resolute voice: Higher-than-expected turnout on Day 1 primary]
1. Well exceeding the target turnout of two-day election, almost 234,000 #HKers hv already cast votes solely on the 1st day of pro-democracy primaries, a day after #hkpolice has raided co-organisers' office.
2. Free from political censorship, this primary is the first, and probably the last primary election for pro-democracy camps since #hkgov has already accused the primaries of breaching the #nationalsecuritylaw.
3. In this last free election, wave after wave of elderly, parents and youths flocked to polling stations to send a clear message to the world: We will not bow to tyranny and we will fight until our last breath.
4. Tomorrow will be the last day of primary. In face of #Beijing’s reign of terror, I am sure #HKers will further demonstrate our grim determination for democracy & liberty tomorrow. When #HKers choose not to bow to tyranny, we hope the world put #HK under the global spotlight.
5. As the primary is the litmus test to #NationalSecurityLaw that rattles both the city's civil society and foreigners, we hope the world will continue to put #Hongkong under the global spotlight.
