The EC recently issued a detailed clarification regarding the printing and allocation of three types of ballots for the upcoming general election. The printed materials include constituency ballots for MPs, party-list MP ballots and referendum voting cards. In total, 168.3 million ballots and voting cards will be printed: the party-list ballots in pink, the constituency ballots in green and referendum cards in yellow. Last month, the cabinet approved the allocation of the 8.978-billion-baht budget to the EC to support election and referendum operations.
