Thai Senate election, 2014 : ウィキペディア英語版
Thai Senate election, 2014

Senate elections were held in Thailand on 29 March 2014 for the second time under the 2007 constitution. Half the senate seats were elected for non-partisan candidates under the first-past-the-post voting system, with voters electing one senator per province. Turnout fell to 43% from 56% in the 2008 senate elections and 46% in the February 2010 general election, which had been boycotted by the opposition,〔(Thai Election Agency Says Senate Vote Peaceful Amid Low Turnout ), ''Bloomberg Businessweek'', 30 March 2014.〕 to only 42.51%〔(Jaruwan set to win Bangkok senate poll ), ''Bangkok Post'', 30 March 2014〕
== Background ==

The election took place against the background of a political crisis in Thailand between the Shinawatra family, who have won all recent elections and are popular among the poor in the rural north, and the royalist and middle class establishment in Bangkok, who accuse them of corruption. The general election in February 2014 was boycotted by the opposition Democrat Party amid street protests against the government of Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra. A week before the senate election the Constitutional Court annulled the general election.〔(Thailand in limbo after election annulled; economy suffering ), ''Reuters'', 21 March 2014〕
The Prime Minister and most of the ruling MPs are facing investigation by the National Anti Corruption Commission, who can refer politicians to the senate for impeachment. The Senate can pass an impeachment with a 60% majority, which results in a ban from political office for five years.〔
