HUA HIN: On May 20, the first day of Senate election registration at the Hua Hin District Office in Prachuap Khiri Khan saw a steady stream of applicants, but the atmosphere was notably subdued. Strict legal requirements and stringent eligibility criteria have deterred some previously interested candidates due to incomplete qualifications. The opening day for Senate election registration in Hua Hin, Prachuap Khiri Khan, was marked by a quieter-than-expected turnout. Provincial election inspectors, including Mr. Prachuap Boonsiri and Pol. Col. Arun Jermsuwan, monitored the process, providing guidance to prevent application errors. Candidates must meet all 25 stringent eligibility criteria to qualify. The registration period runs from May 20-24, with an anticipated increase in applications towards the end. The new election format and legal concerns contribute to the cautious approach of potential candidates. So far, no legal violations have been detected in the registration process. Source
