National election ends Sunday
National election ended across Thailand on Sunday at 3pm in a general election conducted after more than one year after the military ousted prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra in a bloodless coup.
Polling stations closed after seven hours of balloting, and the Election Commission said it expected to release unofficial results by midnight Sunday.
About 45.7 million Thais were eligible to vote in the first election since the coup in September 2006, and the commission said voter turnout would likely reach 70 per cent.
