Thailand's main political parties were jostling for position on Monday amid confusion about the winner of a weekend poll that was fought under a complicated new voting system including elements of proportional representation.
The Elections Commission delayed its announcement on the results from late on Sunday to Monday morning. It was then further delayed to the afternoon, citing technical issues.
It then said it would reveal only the names of the winners of the 350 directly-elected constituency seats, having suspended allocations of the 150 seats available under the proportional party list system.
The names of the winners were uploaded to its website at 4pm local time (09:00 GMT) showing that Pheu Thai had won 138 seats and Palang Pracharat, the army-backed party set up to campaign for military government leader Prayuth Chan-ocha, had won 96 seats.
Future Forward, a party set up only a year ago by billionaire car parts tycoon Thanathorn Juangroongruangkit, came in third with 29 seats.
