China Independent Candidate Under House Arrest for Filing as an Independent Candidate for Local Office

Officials who administer elections in China have long maintained that there is no such thing as an independent candidate for public office in China. However, according to this story, Yang Tingjian insists that the election law permits them. Because he filed to run for office, he is under house arrest and cannot leave his home to campaign. The election is September 9. Election law in China does not permit political parties to exist unless they are approved by the government, although this restriction does not apply to Hong Kong.
