Thailand's government underwent a change of guard in the recent elections after the military-backed incumbent, United Thai Nation Party, which seized power in a coup over a decade ago, saw its time in office come to an end.
Polls leading up to the 14th May vote had indicated the party was in jeopardy.
Pita Limjaroenrat, leader of the Move Forward Party (MFP), pulled ahead in the polls, having garnered the support of the younger more democratic leaning demographic who yearned for change.
In a bid to implore voters to exercise their franchise, Pita campaigned for voter turnout, having cast his own vote early.
Pita's appeal to the 57 million strong electorate produced an unprecedentedly high voter turnout.
Having tallied 99 percent of the votes, support for the incumbent and other military-backed parties had been decimated.
Nevertheless, as there's no clear majority, the MFP has further hurdles to clear before taking power, as the party now needs to form a coalition government.
Furthermore, the 2017 constitution written under the junta's guidance dictates that new premiers have to be approved jointly by 500 elected MPs and 250 junta-appointed senate members.
Beyond this, there are mounting fears over a possible court ordered dissolution of the MFP, echoing the fate of its predecessor, the Future Forward Party, in 2020.
This could delay the final declaration of the result by several weeks.
