Bangkok Election Commission Director Checks Polling Unit Readiness, Expects 70% Voter Turnout
On February 22, 2024, at 8:00 AM at the Amorn Phan Satellite Condo Town (R4) in Kannayao, Bangkok, Acting Captain Samphant Saengkhamloet, Director of Bangkok Elections, discussed the readiness for voting and referendum. The polling units in electoral districts 9 and 10 of Kannayao's 15th district are fully prepared, with voting locations moved indoors from previous tent arrangements. Expecting 500 out of 716 eligible voters to participate, the election commission has printed new ballots and thoroughly prepared for a transparent voting process. The re-voting was necessitated by previous heavy rain damage to ballots on February 8. Strict instructions prohibit photographing ballots inside voting booths, and observers like Senator Nareshet Prachyakorn are monitoring the process to ensure legal compliance.
