🗳 Go Vote (Legco 2021 special edition)

Everything you need to know about today's elections in 14 minutes

Good morning,

For what it’s worth, tomorrow’s elections are going to be pretty exciting. I don’t think we’ve ever had this much media coverage for the Legco elections - and especially not in English! RTHK and HKFP (and us to a much much much smaller extent - going to try and make up for that…right now) have had coverage daily on candidates. That’s amazing.

Vote as you will, as you wish and for whatever you believe in. Just make sure it’s a ”free will vote” that isn’t marred by ”anti chins agents” that ”want the elections to fail”.

It’s still a weekend, it’s still paid subscribers only unforunately. But today’s meme is on my Twitter. Still, you should subscribe because today’s Tide has some really cool quick data on the elections and also 2010 North Korean news throwbacks.

Do you remember what memes you were consuming in 2010? I was watching officially edited North Korean news clips.
