Election Commission (EC) chairman Ittiporn Boonpracong on Saturday said he was confident poll results would be endorsed more quickly than they were in 2019, and well ahead of the mid-July deadline.
Under the law, the EC has 60 days from Election Day, or until July 13, to certify at least 95% of all MPs-elect to make the vote results official. In 2019, it completed this task on May 8, or 45 days after polling day. This year, the 45-day mark would fall on June 28.
