The Scoop: Ohn Lee, 64, just won the Hong Kong chief executives "race" on May 8th, receiving well over 95% of the votes cast in the election.
According to World Magazine, critics view Lee's win as Bejing's "thinly-veiled appointment." World reported that China recently imposed an electoral overhaul to ensure that only true "patriots" could get win in any major political race in Hong Kong.
OPINION: Was the 2020 election rigged? Likely. Are many of the claims of massive voter fraud in the U.S. just conspiracies? Possibly. But regardless of my own or anyone else's opinion on the 2020 election, we need to remember that elections have been rigged since the beginning of time, and in many places, they still are.
We need to be grateful and fight for the free and fair election systems that are still in place in the U.S., never growing too confident in the assumption that they always will be as free and as fair.
