Senate elections were held in Thailand on 2 March 2008 for the first time under the new constitution. Voter turnout was 56%.〔(Low turnout in Thai Senate vote ) BBC News, 3 March 2008〕 Results were expected on 9 March 2008.〔(Bangkok Post Breaking News )〕
76 candidates were elected, one for each province, while 74 senators will be appointed by a selection panel headed by the Constitution Tribunal's president Virat Limvichai. Nominations for these seats were made by professional groups between 13 January and 18 January 2008, whereafter a panel appointed by the Electoral Commission vetted the nominees' credentials before forwarding the nominations to the selection panel.〔(Thailand's Election Commission to organize senatorial election and selection early 2008 ) People's Daily 28 December 2007〕 The Thai Election Commission endorsed the 74 senators selected from the nominations.〔(Thai Election Commission endorses appointed senators ) People's Daily, 19 February 2008〕 The senators will serve six-year terms.
The appointed senators are considered to be closer to the outgoing military administration,〔(BBC NEWS | Asia-Pacific | Low turnout in Thai Senate vote )〕 while among the elected senators a substantial number are closely connected to deposed former PM Thaksin.
