June 20, 20233 yr From The Nation The Election Commission has certified all 500 elected MPs and as per the Constitution, the first House of Representatives meeting will have to be held within 15 days of the announcement. The Election Commission (EC) on Monday endorsed all 400 constituency MPs and 100 party-list MPs for the House of Representatives. EC secretary-general Sawaeng Boonmee said the 500 MPs can report to the EC office from Tuesday until June 24 to receive their election victory certificate. Although their victories were endorsed, the EC said it reserved the right to investigate any allegations of election fraud against the MPs in the future if strong evidence were to be found Sawaeng said that the EC retained the authority to withdraw the right to vote or to stand for election of those MPs who were found guilty, citing Section 138 of the organic law on the election. When asked about the shareholding case against potential prime minister Pita Limjaroenrat, he said the EC was looking into the matter, adding that only some of the details had been verified.
June 30, 20233 yr Since none of the parties received a majority, a coalition government will be needed? Correct? Despit winning the most seats, what are the prospects that Pita will be left out in the cold with a coalition formed by the more traditional parties?
