Bhumjai Thai got 34 seats, Chart Thai Pattana got 19 seats, Chart Patana Puea Pandin got 7 seats, Phalong Chon got 7 seats, Rak Thailand got 4 seats, Matubhum got 2 seats, Rak Santi got 1 seat, Mahachon got 1 seat and New Democratic got 1 seat, said Suthipol Thaweechaikarn, Secretary-General of the EC said at a press briefing on July 5.

About 34.8 million voters among 47 million eligible voters turned out, accounting for around 74 percent. About 3 percent voted "no" or did not vote anyone.

The counts also showed that the average rate of void ballots was at about 4-5 percent, which is not much different from the last general election, the EC secretary-general said.

The EC will endorse the election result in seven days, he said.

According to Thai law, within 30 days after the EC endorses the election result, the newly-elected MPs will have to hold a session to elect the prime minister.

Yingluck Shinawatra, Pheu Thai's prime minister candidate, is expected to be supported by almost 300 MPs from a five-party coalition, to be the first female prime minister of Thailand.
