MHKs will vote on who they want to see in the four available Legislative Council seats in 10 days time.
The candidates includes a current MHK, two sitting MLCs seeking re-election and several former Keys candidates, including a senior local authority figure and MEA board member.
To become a member of LegCo a candidate has to receieve 13 votes, if all four seats aren't filled then ballot is run again.
