Election Commission Confirms No Change in Vote Count Outcome for Pathum Thani District 7 Prachachon Party Did Not Win by a Landslide

The Election Commission confirmed that the new vote count for Pathum Thani District 7 did not change the leading candidate from the original result, despite social media sharing claims that the Prachachon Party won by a landslide in both the constituency and party-list seats.


On 20 Feb 2026 at 13:30, the Election Commission's Anti-Fake News Center issued a statement responding to a Facebook page 'Thai Baan' that reported, “The power watch of the people has revealed the results!” claiming that the new vote count for Pathum Thani District 7 was out and that the Prachachon Party won by a landslide, leaving rivals far behind in both constituency and party-list seats, with official district-wide results expected tomorrow before noon, and speculating about possible upsets. The Election Commission clarified that this report is inaccurate: the new vote count for both party-list and constituency seats in Pathum Thani District 7 did not result in a landslide victory for the Prachachon Party as claimed.


The details are as stated in the official announcements of the vote count for party-list and constituency members of parliament (forms MP 6/1 (PL) and MP 6/1), dated 19 Feb 2026. Therefore, the new vote count did not change the identity of the candidate with the highest votes in any way.
