The Election Commission (EC) is being asked to investigate suspected vote buying, including the scanning of voter ID cards at a rally in the northeastern province of Amnat Charoen recently.
Somchai Srisutthiyakorn, a former EC member who is now chief strategist of the Seri Ruam Thai Party, alleged on Facebook that he suspected that the scanned information could be used to track the activities of people that the party, which he did not name, is buying votes from.
