29 one-horse Thai Rak Thai candidates in south appear to fail
www.chinaview.cn 2006-04-03 13:34:37

    BANGKOK, April 3 (Xinhua) -- It appears that up to 29 candidates of Thai Rak Thai Party from 41 constituencies with one-horse candidates in southern provinces failed to gather the required 20-percent of votes from eligible voters in each constituency.

    Unofficial results Monday morning showed that only 12 of 41 one-horse candidates of Thai Rak Thai managed to gather the required 20 percent of votes.

    The Election Commission of Thailand will have to hold sub-sequent elections for constituencies where the one-horse candidates fail to earn votes up to 20 percent of votes from eligible voters but the same candidates would have to run and no new candidates can apply. Enditem
