Democracy has worked well in Australia & the UK for the past 5 years ... lol !!! ???? The difference is Steven they failed the people, but they are subject to voter scrutiny. Your less than gracious junta failed the people and ruined democracy in favor of shortcuts and using force on those they are avowed to protected. There is no greater failing than that. One day Thailand may live up to the standard of Malaysia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, just means they were arrogant enough to think they would get enough votes on top of their guaranteed 250 senators to win......and if they don't win their attack dog Suthep has already said he'll be out with the 2014 mob again.

Dooball Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 Unsure if i'm allowed to post this, if not then just delete the message. People in my friend's village have been approached yesterday by you-know-who's goons. They made their rounds through the village, knocking on people's doors asking them to vote for their master. In return they receive 1000 baht, and they must send a copy of their ID card by message. I heard same thing is happening in other places. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dooball Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 Well, more members on TV have reported the same thing, all over the country. Is it then still a rumour? I find it to be sickening.

Eligius Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 According to a very, very recent Bangkok University poll (completed a few days ago) of several thousand Thais, 25.9% said they are going to vote for Pheua Thai and 28.7% are going to vote for Palang Pracharat (Prayut's party). Given that Bangkok University is a bastion of the Establishment, how much credibility do you think these poll 'results' possess? I think I know the answer!

This would still mean that Prayut will likely 'become' the 'democratically elected Prime Minister'. Of course these figures are totally reliable and dependable (as is the whole election process) - and there will be no changes or manipulations in the coming days ...!

sjaak327 Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 19 minutes ago, BestB said: 5555555 and still PT wins the election if the exit poll is to be believed. The democrats lost votes to the Junta party. If this is close to the eventual result, it can only be seen as a huge loss of face for Prayuth. Not really a surpise of course... Edit to add: according to the nation, those 173 seats are all constiuency seats, and the party would have grabbed 0 party list seats, that cannot be possible. It is save to say, that result will go north of 200 seats. (providing the counting is going to be fair)... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is rigged in the sense that Prayut will magically emerge as P.M. - and the militarists will magically (not least through the Senate) maintain control of Thailand.
