In a striking shift in electoral prospects, the Move Forward Party is now positioned as the leading contender for the upcoming Provincial Administrative Organisation (PAO) elections, slated for February next year.

 

This forecast is supported by a recent in-depth poll conducted by Rangsit University, revealing a substantial lead over traditional political powerhouses.

 

The survey, involving over 4,000 participants from 47 provinces, indicates that a significant 58.77% of respondents are leaning towards the Move Forward Party.

 

Such numbers suggest a potential landslide in their favor, starkly overshadowing competitors like Pheu Thai and Bhumjaithai, who garnered only 13.59% and 2.65% respectively.

 

This potential political upheaval underscores a growing public sentiment for change, moving away from the entangled politics of influential family dynasties which have long dominated the PAO landscape.

 

Move Forward's appeal appears robust across various regions, with an overwhelming majority in areas such as Bangkok and the central region, and significant leads elsewhere.

 

Conversely, traditional political stalwarts like the Democrat and Palang Pracharath parties are trailing significantly, reflecting perhaps a broader desire amongst the electorate for fresh governance approaches and policy innovations.

 

With election day approaching, these poll numbers not only highlight an evolving political narrative but also underscore the dynamic nature of voter preferences, signaling potentially transformative shifts in Thailand’s local governance structures.

 

As the date draws nearer, it will be intriguing to see how political strategies adapt in response to this surprising electoral development.

Wonder if they ever would let that happen?

It's been an hour now.......would you like a cup of tea and a biscuit while you're waiting and wondering?

 

 

I expect so but I doubt they'll be called MFP and I doubt Pita will be the leader after the Junta's legal arm the Constitutional Court hands down their verdict.

The chances of this just being allowed to happen are extremely small.

History seems to indicate not

I think the thing is it will happen but it's what happens after it happens. I think they'll have trouble quashing all the results where reformist candidates win as this will be wide spread across provinces.

That´s funny! Assuming the above post originates from a person who never thought or wondered about anything, to just let it go later and wait for the result.

 

When expressed in a forum, it is also to be seen as an opinion. Not something that take ownership of a persons total time.

See, not a day without that you learn something new, right?

Me thought there was an mfp dissolution in the makings?

 

I hope it is a tsunami and not a landslide. I despise anything taxsin touches

Finally some good news .

Thaksins relentless efforts to discredit the MFP did not succeed it seems .

But Thailand has a history of preventing unwanted winners to take their prize ...

First by bending the laws , than by a coup ...?

It's sarcasm. Which in itself is a form of opinion.

yes because winning an election means anything. 

don't worry, plenty of time to outlaw the party for x,y,z... whatever convenient for teflon family

There is nothing striking about this, the people regard Move Forward (and Pita) as the only party that has an interest in progress, reform, and forward movement. Something that the other creeps resist with every nanogram in their  being. Srettha is the antithesis of progress, and PT has declined into a moral morass of utter depravity. 

The military will always run this country. I'm gagged from saying more.
