Voters in Thailand will participate in snap elections on Sunday amid political uncertainty and border tensions with Cambodia, with the ruling Bhumjaithai party facing off against the progressive People’s Party. The elections will determine the composition of the 500-seat House of Representatives, with the lower house selecting the next prime minister. Polling stations will close at 5pm, and results are expected to be announced by early Monday. The main contenders include Bhumjaithai, known for its conservative stance and support for the monarchy, the reformist People’s Party, and the longstanding Pheu Thai party campaigning on Shinawatra nostalgia.
