2012 Hong Kong legislative election in District Council (Second)

These are the District Council (Second) functional constituency results of the 2012 Hong Kong legislative election. The election was held on 9 September 2012 and all 5 seats in were contested. The five new seats formed a new constituency under new arrangements agreed in a contentious LegCo vote in 2010, for which candidates may be nominated by the District councillors and are elected by all registered voters who are not in any 'traditional' FC,[1] creating the largest constituency with a total of more than 3.2 million eligible electors.[2] The vote counting system used is the same as that in the GCs: the party-list proportional representation with the largest remainder method and Hare quota.
