The unofficial results of the Pattaya mayoral and council elections yesterday (Sunday), the first such election in a decade, have been withdrawn pending an investigation into the mysterious absence of two ballot sheets and one case of a ballot sheet being issued to a person who is ineligible to vote.  

 

The late night decision to withdraw the results, by, Permanent Secretary of Pattaya city and Director of the Pattaya mayoral and council elections Pramote Taptim came a few hours after he had announced the results at city hall, in which Poramet Ngampichet, of the “We Love Pattaya” team, apparently won the mayoral election.

Speaking at a press conference at 11pm, Pramote said that it had been discovered that a ballot sheet for the mayoral election was missing from polling station 2 in Constituency 1 and one from polling station 20 in Constituency 4, rendering it impossible to announce formally the unofficial result of the election.

 

Meanwhile, at either polling station 29 in Constituency 2 or at polling station 5 in Constituency 3, a ballot sheet for the council election was mistakenly issued to an eligible voter.

Sounds like someone is not happy with the results as reported.

"a ballot sheet for the council election was mistakenly issued to an eligible voter."

rather illegible voter.

The report also clearly stated this...

" and one case of a ballot sheet being issued to a person who is ineligible to vote".

 

"rather illegible voter".

A voter with bad handwriting?  What are you going on about, doc?

From what exactly?

The way I read it the guy who supposedly won is from the same party as the current/previous incumbent who was I believe put in place by the big boss.

 

So if correct what is going to change...........?

You obviously mis-quoted the OP. Did it not say 'a person who is Ineligible to vote' ?

Or is this your idea of a joke?

It must be boring to be soo incompetent all the time. They just can´t do anything right.

Perhaps not a rerun, just a reinterpretation of the results to ensure the right person gets in...

Stop the steal.
