Long queues in Hong Kong's 'litmus test' primaries
Amid concerns that the wide-ranging freedoms enjoyed in Hong Kong are being crushed, long queues were formed on the second day of elections to select democracy candidates for Legislative Council elections in September.
Though only for the opposition camp, observers are watching closely as they say the turnout at the election will serve as a litmus test of broader opposition to the national security law.
Hong Kong's secretary for constitutional and mainland affairs has warned that the election could breach the new national security law.
The polls will close at 9 p.m. (1300 GMT) with results to be announced on Monday (July 13).
