Categories: East Asia, China, Elections, Politics

Anson Chan [1] has announced that she will compete with Regina Ip [2] on legislator's seat. The pan-dem tried to turn it into a battle for 2012 universal suffrage. Erynnyes wonders if Anson could really represent Pan-democratic force [3], as her image is more attached with former government official than a democratic fighter. The blogger still feels that Anson will win, but the above factor might affect the number of votes she will get (zh).
