防疫措施、资源不足 导致投票站大排长龙
在本届大选投票日当天，部分投票站出现大排长龙现象。对此选举局于今日（10日）发声明表示，包括防疫措施和一些较大投票站资源不足，都影响了投票过程的效率。
此次选举当局安排了1097个投票站，但有199个（约18巴仙）投票站，当天早上出现排长龙现象，有47个投票站一整天都持续有人龙。
当局在检讨中指出，一些较大投票站资源不足。比起2015年投入多20巴仙工作人员，即3万6000人手。平均一个投票站负责2400位选民，但有25个投票站，选民人数超过4400人，其中22个都有出现人龙。一些地点甚至还同时有两个投票站。
再者，选民未根据所分配的投票时段来投票；工作人员、选民对电子登记系统不熟悉，也使得投票过程延长。
此次选举也落实防疫措施，但为了减少等候时间，选举局不得不免去选民戴手套程序，此后一些投票站排队的情况在11点后才有所改善。
