     According to China’s electoral law, only the ‘official representative candidates’ are legal candidates for the county and village elections, being nominated and recommended by the political parties, civil organizations and the electorate. Thus, ‘independent’ candidates are considered illegal. For instance, a female xiagang worker in Jiangxi Province, Liu Ping, was placed under tight police surveillance after she declared her intention to stand in Xinyu City’s Yushui District elections.
