I understand it takes two months  to learn the election results.

 

And if things go badly in the days and weeks following the election are you stocking up on food and water? Canceling trips and planing to stay home?

Why would things go badly and what way, this is Thailand not Beirut.

I’m keeping earplugs and noise canceling headphones closer than normal lately. I’m also shaking off groups in matching shirts faster than lottery sellers as they try to come up our steps. I just keep waving them off saying “no Thai” as they try to look around me for a Thai to hustle for a vote.
Wife gets a good laugh.

I wont be here.

 

But I do like the loudspeaker trucks with the reverb so it sounds all spooky....

Got four tons of baked beans delivered this afternoon. The water tanker is coming tomorrow. Have had a welder here all day putting heavy gauge iron bars on the windows and doors, and have taped the glass with masking tape like you see in the movies. Managed to dig myself an air-raid shelter at the back in case of attack by drones, and have installed a filtration system with 25 spare industrial grade filters. No. 1 is worrying whether we have enough toilet rolls....

The result will be known within 48 hours however the OFFICIAL result will be announced 2 months later  the gap being to check that no fraud etc was committed . Thats the way its always been.

You don't get to do it much then? The OP mentioned 2 months:-)

The Clinton - Trump election was an exciting nail-biter...this one rests on how many elected officials come from the military...not much change expected here...

Toilet rolls ! What, is the bum gun broken? My gawd, with that tanker of water, no need for paper.

And don't worry about the drones. That's the new junta voting system. They send a drone to pick up your vote (I know, you can't vote). They want to make sure every vote is filled out right !!!
