THE ELECTION COMMISSION was ready for the Bangkok MP by-election for Constituency 6 today, an election commissioner said yesterday.
The voting will take place from 8am to 3pm today in Klong Sam Wa, Khan Na Yao, Nong Chok and Bueng Kum districts.
Election Commissioner Prapun Naigowit said the vote counting would be at election units before the votes were gathered at district offices.
The district office at Klong Sam Wa would be the centre for the online vote-counting report.
Prapun said while security had been tightened in the areas, foreign election observers, including those from the United States and Canada, were welcome to observe the election so they could understand the poll in Thailand held in a State of Emergency.
