The vote totals for each party are those given at the Election Commission
website. I do not believe they are accurate, because the Thai Nation Party
could not have won 16.2% of the vote and won only seven proportional seats.
The sharp increase in the TNP vote shown by these figures was not reported in
any media I have seen. My suspicion is that the "4" at the beginning of the
TNP vote total is a misprint for a "1" or a "2". Until I locate constituency 
figures I cannot resolve this.

Angus Reid Consultants give the following party vote totals: Thai Love Thais 
60.47%, Democrat Party 18.08%, Thai Nation Party 11.37%, Great People Party 
8.26%, but give no source for these figures.
 
A Thai website (http://www.manager.co.th) gives the following figures for the 
proportional representation vote:

Party                                  Votes        %   
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Democratic Party (PP)                   7,066,000   23.2 
Thai Nation Party (PCT)                 2,039,000   06.7 
Great People Party (PM)                 1,152,308   03.8 
Thais Love Thais (TRT)                 18,896,000   62.2 
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Total                                  30,389,764

This may be a more accurate reflection of the national vote.
