KINGDOM OF THAILAND LEGISLATIVE ELECTION OF 23 DECEMBER 2007 ============================================================================= Source: Election Commission of Thailand, media websites Parties ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- * Phak Chart Thai (Thai Nation Party) * Phak Matchima Thippathai (Neutral Democratic Party) * Phak Palang Prachachon (People's Power Party) * Phak Pracha Raj (Royalist People's Party) * Phak Prachatipat (Democrat Party) * Phak Pua Paendin (For the Motherland Party) * Phak Ruam Jai Thai Chat Pattana (Thais United National Development Party) As always with Thai elections, there is considerable doubt about whether the available figures are final or official. The media website MCOT has figures which seem to be more advanced than the Election Commission figures. Both sets of figures are presented here. The Thai National Assembly now consists of 400 membeers elected from constituencies electing one, two or three members on a first-past-the-post basis, and 80 members elected by proportional representation from eight zones electing ten members each.
