Tin How Temple of Old San Francisco Chinatown
Tumblr media
The above photo is identified by the California Historical Society as a “street scene at corner of Waverly Place and Clay St.”  The building's façade indicates that this was the Tin How Temple, which was located mid-block on Waverly Place between Clay and Washington streets.
The Tin How Temple lays claim to the distinction as the oldest extant Taoist temple in San Francisco's Chinatown, and, given its pioneer roots, represents one of the oldest operating Chinese temples in the United States.
Tumblr media
Tin How Temple, no date.  Photographer unknown and collected by T.E. Hecht (now in the collection of the San Francisco Public Library).
The photographers of pre-1906 Chinatown found the Tin How Temple (also spelled Tianhou Temple, in Chinese: 天后古廟; canto: “Tin hauh gǔ miu”) a compelling subject of their attention.  While most historians concur that the temple was founded and built in 1852 by the Sam Yup district association (三邑會館), its original location, supposedly on Mason Street and Post remains in question.  
Tumblr media Tumblr media
“B 41.  Chinese Josh-House, S.F., Cal., c. 1885.  Photograph by I.W. Taber (from the Marilyn Blaisdell collection).  The adjacent buildings appear to be of wooden construction and far different than the temple’s neighboring structures on Waverly Place in the following decade.
By the 1890’s, the association had moved the temple to 33 Waverly Place.  Commensurate with Its prominence in the life of the community, the Chinese referred to the street on which it was located as  天后廟街 (canto: “Tin Hauh miu gaai”) or “Tin How Temple Street.”  
Tumblr media
“In front of the Joss House, Chinatown, San Francisco” c. 1896 - 1906.  Photograph by Arnold Genthe (from the  Library of Congress Prints and Photographs Division).
By the time Arnold Genthe took the above photo of adults and children in front of the steps leading up to the Tin How temple at the turn of the 20th century, improvements had been made to the exterior façade of the building.
"The facade of Tianhou's temple is brick painted in pastel colors and veined to look like marble. The second floor, where the main altar was generally located, had a balcony with the names of several temples specializing in other deities. Genthe called this photograph "In Front of the Joss House." The term joss, a pidgin Americanization of the Portuguese deus ("god"), was used to describe Chinese temples. According to Ching Wah Lee, 'Chinese considered it incestuous to be intimate with a member of the opposite sex bearing the same surname. To avoid such embarrassments the ladies of the night will call themselves 'Daughter of Tien Hou,' and asked of their surnames will say 'I'm a Tien,' there being no such surname.'"
-- John Tchen, citing Ching Wah Lee, "Chinese temples in North America," in A History of the Chinese in California A Syllabus, ed. Thomas Chinn, H. Mark Lai, and Philip P. Choy, 1969 pages 73 to 75. publ. Chinese Historical Society of America.

Detail from “Waverly Place at Clay Street,” April 9, 1900.  Photograph by D.H. Wulzen (from the collection of the San Francisco History Center, San Francisco Public Library). In this enlargement of Wulzen’s photo of the building at the northeast corner of the intersection of Waverly Place and Clay Street, a worker on the second floor’s balcony is painting the exterior and veining the pattern to create faux-marble effect, similar to the Tin How Temple’s façade across the street.  The signage at right, 富興貴 (lit. “Wealth and Prosperity;” canto: “fu hing gwai”) may denote a gambling house.  The idea for the slogan, according to Wong Yuen-ming, “appears in various Confucian classics  富興貴是人之所欲也, i.e., wealth and honor is what people desire.”

“B2694 Chinatown, S.F. Cal. The Joss Temple” c. 1889. Photo by Isaiah West Taber (from the collection of The Bancroft Library). Some online sources date this photo as c. 1900, but the “Pacific Coast Scenery – Alaska to Mexico Catalogue" published by Taber in 1889 included this numbered “Boudoir” series image.
In this view of the Tin How temple at 33 Waverly Place in old San Francisco Chinatown taken from an elevated position on the south side of the street, several men can be seen hovering over a fortune teller’s divination table on the sidewalk in front of the temple. The large banner signage seen at the street level advertises the fortune-teller’s use of the 卦命 (canto: “gwah ming”) as his method of divination.  The temple of the Gee Tuck Tong (pinyin: "Zhide tang" 至德堂) can be seen at the right of the above photo at 35 Waverly Place. The Gee Tuck temple, dedicated to the Supreme Emperor of the Dark Heavens, was reportedly founded during the mid-1880s

Tien Hou Temple on Waverly Place, c. 1890 --  Photo by Willard E. Worden
The top floor of the building in the right of the above photo is the Gee Tuck Society (至德堂; canto: Gee Duck Tong) at 35 Waverly Place: this temple had supposedly operated since the mid-1880s.
Researchers have recently been placing its location on the San Francisco public health map of 1885 as shown here:

"28. A Short Street, Chinatown San Francisco, Cal.” c, 1900 (Photographer unknown from the collection of the California Historical Society).  The street on which this photo was taken has remained unidentified in the collection of the California Historical Society for years.  However, the Tin How Temple is readily seen on the left, and the Gee Duck Tong building at 35 Waverly Place appears in the center of the frame.

“Boy formally dressed in Chinese outfit,” c. 1905.  Photographer unknown (from the Marilyn Blaisdell Collection). This confident boy (possibly a merchant’s son in New Year’s garb and who can be seen in at least two other photographs by Arnold Genthe), appears to have been taken outside of the Tin How Temple on Waverly Place.
Unfortunately, and as so many other individuals captured in the pre-1906 photos of the Tin How Temple, the identity of the boy in the above photo has been lost to historic memory.  Forty years ago, in the preface to his book about the Chinatown photographs of Arnold Genthe, author and social historian Jack Tchen wrote about the one-who-got-away as follows:
". . . As a social historian, I am always painfully reminded of the fragility of the threads connecting our present with the past. When I first began my fieldwork in San Francisco, Mark Lai advised me to speak immediately with Soon K. Lai, a gentleman in his eighties who had been a prominent figure in San Francisco's Chinese community and who had a sharp, clear memory.  "He can probably identify everyone in those photographs," I was told. After emerging from a few days of archival research, I discovered that in the interval Mr. Lai had stumbled on some steps, hit his head, and died.
"I did not realize how significant Mr. Lai's untimely death would be until I came to find very few Chinese who survived from 1906. Exclusion acts had prohibited the immigration of Chinese women, and anti-miscegenation laws had prohibited the marriage of Chinese and whites.  This meant that those workers who were here could have no families and therefore had no descendants to pass on their life stories. Like most working people, the Chinese of that time left few written records of their lives. The 1906 earthquake and fire destroyed whatever documents did exist. Soon K. Lai was one of the few remaining threads...."

“The First Born”  Photograph by Arnold Genthe (from the collection of the Library of Congress)  The above photo was taken on the east side of Waverly Place with the Tin How Temple in the background.  According to historian Jack Tchen, “[t]he addresses were often red with pearls or jewels and a red fluffy pompom on top.  Sometimes bells were attached so that when the child moved they would make a noise.  Silk tassels often hung down on both sides.  The difference between the headgear of boys and girls was that girls’ headdresses came down and covered their ears, whereas boys’ did not.  Girls’ holiday clothing generally had embroidered edges absent from comparable clothing for boys.” 
Tumblr media
“31. Chinese Restaurant” c. 1900 - 1906. Postcard based on an image by an unknown photographer (from the collection of Wong Yuen-Ming).  The postcard producers of the burgeoning postcard industry of the late 19th and early 20th centuries cared little for accuracy in publishing tourist postcards of Chinatown.  
Tumblr media
As this 1911 advertisement shows, the Locomobile Company of America, an early American automobile manufacturer founded in 1899, came to San Francisco sometime between the Fall of 1901 and April 1906 to photograph its car in front of the old Tin How Temple on Waverly Place in Chinatown.  
Modern-day residents and visitors to San Francisco Chinatown might assume that automobile shows such as the Chinatown Car Weekend Car Show in 2022 represented a relatively recent phenomenon.  As this advertisement for a Locomobile shows, such an assumption would be erroneous.
Sometime after mid-August 1901, the Locomobile Company of America, an early American automobile manufacturer founded in 1899, came to Chinatown to photograph its steam car where the new could be juxtaposed with the ancient.  For reasons that remain forgotten, the company or its ad agency chose to display its Locomobile Steam vehicle in front of the Tin How Temple on Waverly Place.  The ad recites an event on August 12, 1901, when two Denver men named Yont and Felker drove to the top of Pike’s Peak. Their trip in a two-cylinder Locomobile Steamer took just over nine hours and was accomplished by pushing as well as driving to claim the distinction of being the first motorcar to reach the summit.  
Until now, the precise location for the ad-shoot had also been lost to memory.  Fortunately, enough of the temple's façade (including a portion of its vertical signage above and behind the driver's head), appeared behind the group of Chinatown onlookers.  After comparing the ad with other photos of the pre-1906 temple, we now can identify where one of Chinatown's first car exhibitions occurred.
Tumblr media
One of the few pre-1906 photographs of the Tin How temple’s altar, c. 1896-1906.  Photograph by Arnold Genthe (from the collection of the Library of Congress).  “The five-piece altar garniture,” longtime Friends of Roots head Albert Cheng observes, “symbolizes ‘Wuxing, i.e., five elements.”  Fire, Water, Wood, Metal, and Earth comprise the wuxing system.  The system (Chinese: 五行; pinyin: “wǔxíng;” canto: “Ng Hang”), often translated as Five Phases or Five Agents, represents a fivefold conceptual scheme used in many traditional Chinese fields of study.  Wuxing, developed sometime during the Han dynasty in the second or first century BCE, purports to explain phenomena such as cosmic cycles, the interactions between internal organs, the succession of political regimes, and the properties of herbal medicines.
According to historian Jack Tchen, the Tin How temple’s altar was located “at the entranceway to the main altar directly behind it.  Placed upon the two ornate teakwood tables are assorted pewter vessels and carved wooden cult objects.  Contrary to Western forms of worship, the Chinese attitude toward religion was not denominational.  A person could worship Buddha and several patron deities, and at the same time cite Taoist parables.  The attitude was carried to some degree into the Chinese acceptance of Christianity.”
The 1906 earthquake and fire destroyed the entire building in which the Tin How temple was located.  
Tumblr media
“Ruins of the Chinese Joss House on Waverley [sic] Place, Chinatown” April 1906.  Photographer unknown.
Newspaper reports indicated that the patrons of the Tin How and other temples on Waverly Place were able to salvage a few sacred objects from the ruins, including an image of the goddess, the temple bell, and part of the altar.  A report from the San Francisco Bulletin of April 25, 1906, recounted the following events: 
“CHINESE WORSHIP UPON RUINS OF CHINATOWN STRANGE CEREMONY PERFORMED IN ASHES OF FAMOUS JOSS HOUSE
“With unwavering faith in the Image of Heaven, twenty Chinese gathered at one desolate spot in the ruins Chinatown this morning and worshipped in full compliance with the rites of their religion. In the ashes of their temple they knelt and silently offered their prayers.
“Prostrate in the smouldering wreckage before them was the charred trunk of the graven image that once held the altar in the Temple of Shaie Tai. The fumes of fresh incense and sacred punks curled skyward. All the dainties obtainable under the circumstances were spread in the propitiatory offering to the devil that no offense to that deity might bring a recurrence of the disaster. No detail was overlooked by the faithful Chinese, who pleaded for mercy in behalf of the 35,000 of their countrymen made homeless by the holocaust.
“This unique and touching service took place in Waverly place, where once stood the richest Joss house of San Francisco's Chinese quarter. Last night the worshippers came across the bay from Oakland, bringing two priests of the temple with them. At dusk they tried to find the ruins of their Joss house, but were driven back by the military guards thrown in a wide circle around the locked mansions of Nob Hill. Devotedly, however, they stuck to their mission and went back as far as the ferry building, where they huddled together and remained without shelter until another should come and they could perform their trust.
“Early this morning they again made their way to Chinatown. A special policeman escorted them and after some parley got permission from the sentries for the performance of the ceremony in which the Orientals place their only hope of future safety and salvation.
“The ruins of the Joss house were soon found and the removal of a little debris uncovered the partly burned Joss. At first sight of the blackened wooden image the Chinese dropped to their knees. They remained silent for a moment and then arose, the priests chanting to the fallen Joss, while the others spread out the offerings of food that had been brought along.
“For an hour the Chinese remained in worship and then when they had completed their appeal to the spirit of the burned Joss they cautiously backed from the sacred wreckage of the temple and after one final prayer, muttered in unison, returned to the thousands of destitute Chinese in the cities across the bay. The feast for the devil was left. Some hungry refugee may chance to find it, but that does not matter to the faithful Chinese; they have humiliated themselves before all that is left of the Image of Heaven and will await the blessing their religion promises for such devotion.”

Above:  the top two stories of the Tin How Temple building in 1910.  [Photograph from the collection of the Chinese Historical Society of America].  Judy Yung, from San Francisco’s Chinatown by Judy Yung and Chinese Historical Society of America:  “The Chinese called Waverly Place Tien Hou Miu Gai after the temple built in honor of Tien Hou, Goddess of Heaven and protector of travelers, writers, actors, sailors, and prostitutes.  Erected in 1852 under the auspices of the Sam Yup Association, the temple was destroyed in the 1906 earthquake and rebuilt on the top floor of the Shew Hing District Association building at 125 Waverly Place.” 
The Sue Hing Benevolent Association (肇慶會館; canto: “Sue Hing Wuih Guhn”) acquired ownership of the property, reconstructed, and reopened the temple in 1910 on the top floor of a new four-story building at a re-numbered 125 Waverly Place.  As families moved out of Chinatown, and its population dwindled (particularly its bachelor community), the association closed the temple in 1955.  On May 4, 1975, the association reopened the temple; the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965 had re-populated San Francisco's Chinatown.

“Sometimes the highest floor of an organization was reserved as a sanctuary – to be as near the gods as possible.  Such is the case with the Shew Hing [District] Association, one of the two oldest temples in San Francisco.  Located on Waverly Place, this street has always been called by the Chinese T’ien Hou Miao or the Street of the T’ien Hou Temple.”  
--  CHSA founder and former temple custodian, Chingwah Lee

As of the summer of 2022, the Tin How temple remained closed to the general public (and open only to its members).  Photograph on June 24, 2022, by Doug Chan.  The northerly adjacent building to the temple is the Yee Fung Toy Association building.  The building with the green-painted façade serves as the headquarters of the Hop Sing Tong.

A footnote about the temple’s missing stair-nosings:
For those who stare for hours at the photographs of the Tin How temple throughout the 19th century and up to 1906, the temple’s nine front stairs to its first floor over its below grade level provide a clue to fixing dates to such photos. The earlier images, including Taber's “Boudoir” series photo "B 2694 Chinatown, S.F.Cal. The Joss Temple,” show the bottom three stairs with tread nosing(s) overhanging the vertical risers. 
Tumblr media
“Exterior of Building in Chinatown,” no date. Photographer unknown (from the collection of the Bancroft Library).  This image of the Tin How temple on the pre-1906 Waverly Place show the bottom three steps still have their original tread nosings.
However, later photos, circa 1890s (for example by Willard Worden, and Fritz Muller's postcard shot of 1905, and the photo posted above), show that the stair tread nosings for the bottom three stone stairs have been removed or chiseled off. I'm guessing that the work was done sometime in the very late 1890's.  Unfortunately, information often accompanying photos from this period can be misleading, as collectors often affix inaccurate descriptions and dates to their holdings based on when they acquired to an image.
Tumblr media
 “Chinese Joss House Dupont Street bet. Sacramento & Clay Sts. 1898″ no date. Photographer unknown (from a private collection). This stereograph used the preceding photograph (from a private collection).  The “1898″ year as written appears to be of doubtful value in determining the actual year in which the photo was taken.. 
Opensfhistory image wnp37.03766 (“Boy formally dressed in Chinese outfit,” c. 1905, and also shown above), provides some evidence that the stairs alteration work was performed later toward the end of the 19thcentury. The detail of the bottom three steps of the Tin How Temple can be seen clearly in this shot taken on the sidewalk in front of the left basement entrance (with missing tread nosings over the stair risers).
One wishes that the late architectural historian Phil Choy were around to address the question. Moreover, the documentary record, such as newspaper accounts, is lacking about the building alterations which may have occurred on site between the 1880's to 1906 when the Sam Yup Association operated the temple.  Additional research and analysis await.

0045: PRO-DEM. InMedia reports that newcomer democrat Leslie Chan has won in the Tsim Sha Tsui West constituency, beating four other candidates.
0047: PRO-DEM. Adjacent to Tsim Sha Tsui West, NowTV reports that incumbent pro-Beijing district councillor Chris Ip has lost his seat to democrat Chan Tsz-wai in Jordan South.
0050: PRO-DEM. Demosisto has confirmed to HKFP that Kelvin Chan — replacing the disqualified Joshua Wong — has beaten incumbent pro-Beijing councillor Judy Chan in South Horizons West.
0054: PRO-DEM. Pro-democracy barrister Lau Wai-chung has beaten the incumbent Liberal Party’s Dominic Lee in the wealthy Yau Yat Tsuen constituency of Sham Shui Po.
0058: PRO-DEM. Democrat Paul Zimmerman has retained his seat in Pokfulam.

0104: PRO-DEM. Several more pro-democracy victories are reported in Wanchai, and InMedia estimates that the local council will have a pro-democracy majority, as in 2003-07. However, pro-Beijing legislator Paul Tse has narrowly retained his seat.

0112: PRO-DEM. Chinese medicine practitioner Kwan Ka-lun has taken a traditionally pro-Beijing seat in Whampoa East, which later legislator Yau Wai-ching failed to take back in 2015.
0113: PRO-DEM. Former journalist Lee Ka-Wai has also won in the traditionally pro-Beijing Fu Sun constituency of Tuen Mun.

0120: PRO-DEM. NowTV reports that pro-democracy protest organiser Jimmy Sham — targeted twice in hit-and-run attacks — has won in Lek Yuen, Shatin. The district has previously been discriminated against for an apparently high mainland immigrant population.

0204: PRO-BEIJING. Pro-Beijing heavyweight Starry Lee has retained her seat in Tokwawan North, narrowly evading a challenge by pro-democracy disqualified legislator "Long Hair" Leung Kwok-hung. This area is one of the most staunchly “blue” areas and there are very few who can really fight against the DAB leader. Personally think it was a wise choice to sic Long Hair on him because Long Hair has the experience given his LegCo experience and grassroots work, yet also prevents the pro-dem faction from wasting one important current LegCo member
0205: PRO-DEM. Democrat Andrew Chiu - whose ear was bitten off by an assailant with a knife last month - has won in Taikoo Shing on Hong Kong Island.
0209: PRO-DEM. Democratic Party legislator Roy Kwong - popular in recent months for his assistance to protesters - has won in the North District Council. Pro-Beijing legislator Horace Cheung has lost his seat in the Central and Western District Council.

0218: PRO-DEM. Chan Ka-yi - protege of legislator Au Nok-hin who has helped her to become his successor - has won in the Lei Tung (I) constituency in Hong Kong Island South.
0219: PRO-DEM. In Shek Yam constituency, North District, Democratic Party legislator Andrew Wan has retained his district council seat.

0224: PRO-DEM. At City One, Shatin - which attracted media earlier for its very high voter turnout - the pro-democracy Civic Party's Wong Man-huen has beaten her pro-Beijing opponent by over 2,000 votes.
0229: PRO-DEM. In Sai Kung's rural Outlying Islands, newcomer democrat Debby Chan has declared victory in a previously uncontested constituency.

0304: PRO-BEIJING. Pro-Beijing legislator Wilson Or is one of the few to retain his District Council seats, after being People Power's Tam Tak-chi in Kwun Tong's Kwong Tak constituency.
0305: PRO-BEIJING. Despite many members of his legislative winning, reports suggest that pro-democracy legislator Eddie Chu has lost his district council seat in Pat Heung South, Yuen Long.
0307: After his district council win, pro-democracy legislator Andrew Wan told InMedia that it was the most solemn electoral victory of his life. He said he urgently wants to meet Carrie Lam, rescue those trapped in PolyU, and hold police accountable for brutality.
0316: PRO-DEM. Unofficial counts online suggest that the pro-democracy camp has won overwhelming victories in many districts including Tuen Mun, Wong Tai Sin and Tai Po - with some unverified rumours suggesting almost clean sweeps.

0341: PRO-DEM. Pro-Beijing legislator Michael Luk Chung-hung of the Federation of Trade Unions has lost his district council seat in Yuen Long.
0345: With just half of the 452 constituencies having announced their results, Stand News reports that the pro-democracy camp has so far obtained a landslide 197 seats compared to the pro-Beijing camp's 24. The pro-democracy camp only won just over 100 seats in 2015.
0359: PRO-DEM. Explicitly pro-protest candidate Lucifer Siu has won by a narrow margin in Mong Kok North, a constituency that has seen dozens of arrests over the past months due to protests at Mong Kok Police Station.
0400: Stand News reports as of 4am that the pro-democracy camp has won at least 240 confirmed District Council seats - over half of the 452 total elected seats - compared with the pro-Beijing camp's 28 confirmed seats.
0402: PRO-DEM. Stand News has reported that the pro-democracy camp has made a clean sweep, winning all 19 seats in the Tai Po District Council.

0434: Alvin Yeung, head of the mainstream pro-democracy Civic Party, says all party members who have been elected in the district elections will pay a visit to the Polytechnic University on Monday to assist the people trapped inside.
0542: Pro-democracy camp officially exceeds 300 seats at 301 vs 035.
0604: The man who vowed to run naked in Victory Park if Junius Ho loses is now doing so.
0617: After Tai Po, Wong Tai Sin becomes the 2nd district where pro-democracy candidates take all seats.
0642: 343 to 41 now. Pro-dem camp also already secured a majority in 16 out of all 18 districts so far. With only Kowloon City district and Outlying Islands district remaining. Outlying islands district has 8 ex-officio seats so it's firmly under pro-Beijing camp control. Kowloon City district is the only remaining one that's uncertain whether pro-democracy camp will win a majority.
0656: 349 to 44 currently. 1 more seat to hit 350.
0701: 351 to 44. Just pushed past 350.
0821: 365 to 51.
0837: 376 to 52 now. Can't hit 400 (not enough seats left) but it's definitely gonna push past 380.
0849: Just went over 380. 11 seats left to go. So we will likely close with pro-democracy camp getting 380-ish seats and pro-Beijing camp with 60-ish seats.
0907: 387 to 59, with one seat left.That seat is Lam Tin, a source of kerfuffle last night. Meanwhile the pro-dem has gotten the majority at Kowloon City.
At least 2 District Councils 100% pro-dem: Wong Tai Sin (25 seats) and Tai Po (19 seats). A prospect previously almost unimaginable. The other ensured pro-democracy majorities are Tsuen Wan, Wanchai, Central & Western, and Southern.7 pro-China LegCo members have lost seats, including Junius Ho, Holden Chow, Horace Cheung, Alice Mak, Michael Tien, Vincent Cheng. The only 2 big pro-democracy losses are Long Hair (kinda expected, a deliberate strategic move to set him up against Starry Lee) and Eddie Chu (kinda unexpected but also expected? esp given all the Yuen Long craziness and the staunchly pro-China attitudes of villagers). Civic Party won 32 of 36 seats it contested when it previously only had 12 DC seats.
0909: A referendum on the protests, the gov and the police. Results: HK ppl are pro-protester, pro-democracy, anti-gov and anti-police. Pro-democracy candidates have won 86.2% gaining control of 17 of the 18 District Councils and tripling their seats from around 124 to 387. 2019 District Council elections, Pro-dem: 388 Pro-Beijing: 059 2015 elections, Pro-dem: 125 Pro-Beijing: 299 In the past, HKers didn’t care about DC elections as fewer than 50% voted for what they considered as powerless positions. This time, 71% of registered voters (nearly 3 million) voted even if the results will have little immediate impact, showing a deep desire for real democracy.
Ballot counting procedures in Hong Kong’s Lam Tin constituency are in doubt after the pro-democracy candidate complained that problematic ballots had been accepted as valid, causing him to lose the race. Fung Tak-sum, an independent candidate, was running against Kan Ming-tung of the pro-Beijing Federation of Trade Unions (FTU) in Sunday’s District Council election race. Fung told reporters that he lost by a margin of 50 votes, but there were over 100 problematic ballots. Fung won 4,030 votes, whilst Kan received 4,080 votes. Fung said the problematic ballots considered valid included those with two to three ticks inside the box, ticks being stamped on the FTU’s logo, or ticks on Kan’s face as shown on the ballot.“There were never any guidelines saying that these ballots should be counted as valid,” Fung said. Fung said he asked for a review of the ballots after it was announced he had lost, but the Electoral Affairs Commission (EAC) – an independent body managing the election – said it was not possible. He will consider filing an election petition.
1300: Ballot counting finally ends at around 15 hours after the election officially ended – with candidates requesting multiple recounts. Dozens of residents also gathered outside the counting station in protest.
Pro-democracy faction gains control of 17 out of the city’s 18 district councils following Sunday’s landslide election. The democrats now have majority control in almost all areas except the Islands District Council, where they won seven seats, and the pro-Beijing camp obtained 11 seats. Eight of the seats in the Islands District belong to ex-officio members, which were not included in Sunday’s election. It marks a landslide when compared to the last election in 2015, when the opposition camp failed to win any district council. The election saw a record high 71.2 per cent turnout rate with around 2.94 million people casting their ballot. The democrats won slightly less than 60 per cent of the votes but – as the election was conducted under the first-past-the-post system – they won close to 400 out of the 452 seats. The pro-Beijing camp only won 58 seats. With the overwhelming majority that democrats obtained, they will also gain all 117 of the District Councillor seats in the chief executive election committee because of its winner-takes-all rule. It will further increase the power of democrats inside the committee. The opposition camp are also destined to gain the District Council (First) seat in the Legislative Council next year, when the election takes place.
The pro-democracy Democratic Party is the biggest winner of the election, winning 91 seats after fielding 99 candidates. The pro-Beijing Democratic Alliance for the Betterment and Progress of Hong Kong, meanwhile, suffered a major defeat. The city’s largest pro-Beijing party fielded 181 candidates, but only won 21 seats. Party chair Starry Lee bowed in apology to voters who supported them on Monday. Lee said she had asked to resign from the party’s central committee, but the party did not accept her resignation. Lee highlighted cases of her party’s election materials being damaged and volunteers being afraid to canvass votes owing to harassment and doxxing by other people. Wait, you didn’t win and you can’t win, so you make pointed and woefully false remarks like this? The pro-Beijing Federation of Trade Unions, another major party, only obtained four seats after fielding 62 candidates. FTU President Stanley Ng said the result was not ideal, as he blamed the overall political environment.“The election was conducted under a very unfair situation – under a black terror and riotous environment,” he said, referring to violent protesters. Another dude making false accusations post-fact despite all sorts of evidence showing peaceful voting activity.
Scattered posts on Weibo following the news of pro-dem camp’s landslide victory: ”Only ppl who don’t live in HK will actually believe that the pro-establishment camp will win this time.” ”I heard that the silent majority in HK are patriotic, why is the election result like this?” “The public opinion is shown through their votes, not through certain tv stations.” “Since it’s one country two systems, we have to accept the public opinion of HK ppl and let their society decide their own path. If it works, perhaps we shld follow.” “The brain of those writing the script at state media must be splitting.” “This happens when ppl can vote, and this is why HK cannot implement universal suffrage.” “If pro-establishment wins, the silent majority spoke; if they lose, blame it on foreign interference.” “A short but telling ‘hoho’.” “Why is the gov not sending in the tanks instead and abolishing the one country two systems thing?” “I don’t understand the results...” Obviously the ones that question the CCP or support HK disappear asap. In the comments section of a post on Starry Lee vs Long Hai, a number of users struggle to understand why Long Hair is allowed to even run (duh it’s a democracy!) and how he managed to obtain >1500 votes. Others ask why Lee, even as the chairman of the biggest pro-gov pro-China party, wins only by a slim margin of 300 votes.
While pro-dem wins 86.2% of DC seats, they only did so with only 57% of overall vote (but also do note all the vote rigging and addition of pre-prepared votes, the existence of the older voters, and the fact that a big portion of youth still cannot vote), still a big margin but shows that the pro-Beijing with 41% are still an electoral force to reckon with. Pro-dems control the 117 DC votes for Chief Exec in 2022 selection but it does not really matter since pro-Beijing still have a hold over that rigged process. Pro-dems also fill the LegCo DC functional constituency seat, but numerically is also matters little to the pro-Beijing control of the functional constituencies e.g. business,
Pro-Beijing camp’s myth of the “silent majority” has been busted.
16yo boy convicted on 7 Nov of possession of offensive weapons sentenced today to a rehab centre. He had a laser pointer, an umbrella and a walking stick at a protest in Tuen Mun on 21 Sep. Denied bail, pending appeal. So far 3 citizens convicted (2 plead guilty) and 2 sentenced, 1 to community service, 1 to rehab centre. All young: 21, 12 and 16 (15 at time of commission of offense). Next sentencing on 19 Dec.
Statistics show that the pro-dem votes are much higher in districts that are the major sites of teargassing (e.g. see Wong Tai Sin).  All of the constituencies which had teargas (98): 92.9% (91 wins, 7 losses) Of these, those who are major teargas sites (30): 96.7% (29 wins, 1 loss) Constituencies not hit by teargas (354): 83.9% (297 wins, 57 losses) There is an obvious correlation btwn severity of teargassing and the amount of pro-dem votes.
Keeping with the HK tradition of no one ever resigning :)))) - Leaders of pro-Beijing DAB party bow to the public after only winning 21 seats of the 181 candidates it sent.
1310: Central. A guy is pouring champagne for everybody on the streets. (note: Champagne Guy makes further appearances in future lunchtime protests. His sunglasses and facial hair make him quite recognisable.)
1341: Central. Pro-Beijing lawmaker Regina Ip is being besieged and hounded as she travels through the streets of Central. Crowds chant “traitor of Hong Kong”.
1349: Central. More ppl join in the spontaneous champagne party.
Chief Exec Carrie Lam previously called protesters the “enemy of the people” and said that they “will never win”. The statement did not age well. Now, Lam issues a statement thanking the public for voting in the DC elections, and does not dare to come out to meet the press or whom she calls the “silent majority” following the pro-dem victory.
1600: PolyU. Newly elected pro-dem District Councillors plan to march to PolyU to call for break of the police siege instead of going on vote-thaking tours. After this 45 min gathering, 5 delegates will go and attempt to speak to police and those trapped inside, while the rest wil go to the Gov House to demand gov to call off the police, allow first-aiders into PolyU, and fulfill the 5 demands of the people.
1642: PolyU. District Councillor Paul Zimmerman says HK gov has failed ppl again and again in last 5 months and the ppl have spoken loud and clear as they did again on 24 Nov. 
1653: PolyU. Citizens trapped inside ask ppl outside not to clash with police at this time. They say that the ppl inside are safe and that they are communicating with reps of the newly-elected district councillors.
1657: Tsim Sha Tsui. A group of newly-elected pro-dem District Councillors gathered at Centenary Garden are starting march to PolyU.
1708: Tsim Sha Tsui. Hundreds of citizens march with the district councillors and are now at the police cordon around PolyU, shouting, “Open the way, let us pass!”
Pro-Beijing lawmaker Regina Ip says her party lost because they had been “politicised”. Rubbish, all elections are political, what are you even saying??? xD She ain’t making sense.
2017: Hung Hom. Citizens stand outside PolyU and flash phone lights up at campus buildings to let those inside know they have not been forgotten. 
2100: Tsim Sha Tsui. Hundreds have returned to the streets to chant pro-dem slogans despite pro-dem camp just winning the local elections.
