     @gemlog Yes. Anyone other than DAB and allies who would stand in this election is either gone, incarcerated, barred or self-censoring.

     @gnu2 When I follow the link I get:

     Hong Kong ‘patriots only’ District Council race: 322 nominations received so far, none from pro-democracy partiesCandidates from the five largest pro-establishment parties accounted for 183, or 57 per cent, of the 322 nominations received by the government to run for the upcoming “patriots-only” race, as of October 21. No nomination has been submitted by an opposition party yet.

     
     and then the actual article with more details and analysis.
