    Noticed that the activity at the polling station is way higher than past elections.

    Lots of people queuing up early to vote in Cyberport - which is unusual.

    Queue is too long for my schedule this morning. I'll go and vote this afternoon.

    About 11-12% of the number of people assigned to our polling booth had voted by 9am. Our wait was about 40 mins.

    In the past we have been in and out in 5-10 mins.

    Average age seemed to be around 50+.. But that is what the demographics of our estate are.

    Truly feel bad for the yum cha bussed in elderlies, maybe they’ll opt to go for yum cha directly instead.

    Democrats should just keep rejoining the queue to the old bribe-recipients can't tolerate standing so long and just go home.
