EyesWideOpen Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 This is going to fascinating to watch. Thaksin clone number four moving up the ladder versus someone with a last name of Chiang Mai..... I suppose both candidates would have a tough time identifying with the little people.. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nickymaster Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 I wonder what the vote buying budget is. All I can assume is that it will be enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellodolly Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Why does the word "heavyweight" get used in the same paragraph as "Yaowapa" so often? Because Yaowapa and "lightweight" doesn´t walk hand in hand. It is her way of showing transparency. As for how much money is being used to buy votes. Find out what there total budget is take 90% of that and you will have a pretty close approximation of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
