Ice Ruchanok Demands Recount in Chonburi District 1, Insists on Original Count
Tensions are high as Ice Ruchanok challenges the election results in Chonburi District 1. Local residents surrounded the ballot storage area, demanding a recount, but the Election Commission (EC) refused to recount the votes, creating significant unrest in the province. Ice Ruchanok, a list-based parliamentary candidate from the People's Party, live-streamed the heated situation and questioned why authorities are reluctant to recount, suggesting there might be irregularities in the initial vote count. In a provocative social media post, she challenged the authorities, asking, 'If the EC did nothing wrong in the initial count, why are they afraid of a recount?' The controversy centers around Suchart Chomklin from the Bhumjaithai Party, who currently leads the election results in the district.
