Draft measures reform Election Law

Other stipulations for change have also been included in the draft amendment to the Election Law.

Some measures include organizing more face-to-face contact between candidates and electors, and providing basic information on the candidates. Others include a secret polling system that could prove effective in beating down bribery in elections. But the latest amendment has not addressed suffrage of migrant workers. Given undergoing reform on China's household registration system, officials believe it is not the right time to issue any regulations on the issue.
