Convenience, security for advance by-election poll


The Election Commission has prepared measures make the advance polling for Bangkok's Constituency 6 by-election today and tomorrow convenient for voters. EC commissioner Wisut Phothitaen said after examining the preparations for today's voting in Khan Nayao, Klong Samwa, Bueng Kum and Nong Chok that besides providing volunteers to help verify voters' identities, a supply of sandbags and wooden boards has been prepared in case of heavy rain and flooding at the election units.

The marked ballots will be kept in an open area in each of the four district offices. While these areas can be seen at all times, police officers and closed-circuit video cameras will also secure the ballot boxes. Representatives from the political parties are welcome to witness the ballot-box security, Wisut said.

The actual by-election day is July 25.
