The Pheu Thai Party on Thursday announced the names of 61 people who intend to run as party candidates in the next general election.
In a bid to drum up voters’ interest, several political parties have chosen to reveal the names of prospective election candidates, despite the fact that the Election Commission (EC) has yet to officially begin accepting candidacy applications.
The poll agency is still in the process of redrawing electoral boundaries, which have to be readjusted to accommodate the increase in the number of constituency MPs, which will rise from 350 to 400 in the next election.
