THAILAND – Millions of Thai voters go to the polls today to decide which political parties and candidates deserve their trust to represent them and to run the country.
The Election Commission (EC) said yesterday that unofficial voting results were expected to be available no later than 10pm today, although there was concern that heavy rains today could affect voter turnout.
Election commissioner Prapun Naigowit yesterday said he was worried about the weather. It could be raining today so he asked eligible voters to cast their votes early.
There are 47,321,136 eligible voters in this election.
More than 180,000 policemen will be deployed throughout the country to ensure safety on election day, according to national Police chief General Wichean Potephosree.
