Beijingers get greater poll choices
( 2003-12-08 07:57) (China Daily)

The democratic process in the Chinese capital is getting increasingly vibrant, with the participation of independent candidates in Beijing's district people's congress elections.

The independent candidates are nominated by groups of 10 or more voters, with the other candidates often being directly nominated by political parties or organizations.

Beijing has not seen independent candidates for grass-roots elections for more than two decades, said Huang Weiping, director of the Institute of Contemporary Chinese Politics Research at Shenzhen University.
