2014 Hong Kong electoral reform - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The NPCSC Decision rules out the universal suffrage in the 2012 CE Election and 2012 LegCo Election but on the other hand provides the possibility of universal suffrage for CE in 2017 and LegCo in 2020.
"The decision states that for the 2017 Chief Executive election, a nominating committee, similar to the present Election Committee system, be formed to nominate two to three candidates, each of whom must receive the support of more than half of the members of the nominating committee." NPCSC's 31 August decision
THIS IS THE BIG DEAL, NO LONGER ONLY 150 MEMBERS (1/8TH) OF NOM COM, THIS IS WHAT THREW A SPANNER IN THE WORKS

Hong Kong Voting for Legislature Is Heavy - NYTimes.com
The poorly financed Civic Party, lacking a grass-roots network to guide its supporters, ran a single slate in each constituency and tried to persuade as many voters as possible to vote for it. The party’s best known politician, Audrey Eu, and its rising star, Tanya Chan, listed themselves second on slates in the New Territories West constituency and Hong Kong Island, respectively. Both ended up losing their seats.

梁家杰先生：
8月26日来函收悉。香港行政长官普选制度源自基本法规定，必须以基本法为依据。基本法的有关规定是讨论行政长官普选办法的前提和基础。就行政长官普选时候选人提名办法而言，基本法第45条已明确规定“由一个有广泛代表性的提名委员会按民主程序提名”，并无其他选项。而且，2007年12月29日全国人大常委会的有关决定也进一步明确：“在香港特别行政区行政长官实行普选产生的办法时，须组成一个有广泛代表性的提名委员会。提名委员会可参照香港基本法附件一有关选举委员会的现行规定组成。提名委员会须按照民主程序提名产生若干名行政长官候选人，由香港特别行政区全体合资格选民普选产生行政长官人选，报中央人民政府任命。”我不久前出席立法会午餐会时已讲过，讨论香港行政长官普选的办法问题，正途是沿着基本法和全国人大常委会有关规定的轨道往前走，而不是脱离法律规定的轨道走弯路。从事法律职业者，更应深谙法治要义，不可逾矩。
我是先从报纸上获悉你邀请我出席以“公民提名何惧之有”为题的研讨会。如上所述，“公民提名”漠视基本法明文规定，诚不攻自破之说。莅会之邀，恕不应约。
此复。

'Not long ago I attended a luncheon at the Legislative Council have said, to discuss ways of Hong Kong Chief Executive by universal suffrage question, the right path is along the relevant provisions of the Basic Law and the National People's Congress walked the track, rather than from the law track detours. those in the legal profession, the rule of law should be well versed in essence, can not transgressing.

Xi Says Hong Kong Political Reforms Must Follow Constitution - Bloomberg
"The Basic Law states that candidates for the chief executive position have to be nominated by a “broadly representative” committee, Zhang Xiaoming, director of China’s Liaison Office in Hong Kong, wrote last month in an open letter to Civic Party leader Alan Leong. Zhang’s comments were the clearest China had made in rejecting activists’ demands for an open nomination."
RIGHT ... SO THE PROTESTERS WANT TO CHANGE THE BASIC LAW TO AN OPEN NOMINATION, THAT'S WHAT THIS IS ABOUT, I THINK?
