#Editorial by AppleDailyHK | "The new electoral system, “improved” by Beijing, means all candidates have to be reviewed by the department for safeguarding national security of the Police Force and the Committee for Safeguarding National Security, then checked by the Candidate Eligibility Review Committee to ensure that the candidate is a patriot who loves the Party, the motherland and Hong Kong. In addition, the candidate needs to receive a unanimous nomination from the five sectors of the Election Committee, which has 1,500 members, before being accepted as “one of them” and able to join the election. Any opposition, loyal or not, has no chance to pass the selection process, never mind to win the election. The citizens are already uninterested in this so-called election. If even the right to cast a blank vote as protest has been removed, it will be, as Professor Johannes Chan said, “the election has been improved, but no one goes to vote,” an embarrassing scenario. The situation has come to this. It seems the “Law of Silent Resentment” will be inevitable."

"經過北大人的「完善」，參選人都莫非經警方國安處、國安委審核，資格審查委員會驗明正身，確定絕對愛黨愛國愛港，再獲得1,500人的選委會的五大界別一致放行入閘的自己友。所有反對派，不管忠誠與否，勢將望閘興嘆，遑論勝出。這樣的所謂選舉本來已叫市民難以提起興趣，若是投白票作抗議的權利也被剝奪，那又焉能不致如陳文敏教授所言，「選舉完善咗但係冇人投票」的尷尬局面。境況如斯，兩千多年前的「腹誹之法」也就在所難免了。"
