Election in Trang cancelled


The election has been cancelled in Trang province because voting ballots have not been delivered to any of the area's four constituencies.

Saneh Rakrong, election director for Trang, said none of the four constituencies had received voting ballots supposed to have been sent to them by the central office of the Election Commission as of 8am.

Therefore, polls across the entire province had to be cancelled, he said.

Anti-election protesters in the South have been blocking the delivery of voting ballots at post offices in the region.

Trang has 473,371 eligible voters and 889 polling units in four constituencies.

He said protesters are wrong to obstruct other people from voting, and asked asked the media to convey his message to People's Democratic Reform Committee leader Suthep Thaugsuban. Those who do not like the government can simply tick the "no vote" box, he said.

"After the brawl, Chuwit returned home without voting. He said he would not file a complaint with police."
He won't file a complaint?

Would you file a complaint against your own henchmen after some show acting?

That was my point. Put heavy emphasis on "He" and you get the gist of my comment.
