Council of State says EC can postpone election

BANGKOK: -- The Council of State has ruled that the Election Commission is authorized to postpone the election on certain polling units where election cannot be held on schedule.

Informed sources said that the government consulted the Council of State whether the February 2 election could be postponed or not after the Election Commission asked the government to consider putting off the election to ease political tension.

According to the ruling, if an election at any polling units cannot be held because of riot or any Act of God, the EC can stage an election within seven days after the end of the riot or any Act of God which has rendered the polling impossible.
