Opposition leader Natthaphong Ruengpanyawut's father faced confusion when his name was missing from the voter list at his usual polling station.
The family, including Natthaphong, had been reassigned to a new polling station due to a change in their registered house number, a detail they hadn't expected to alter their voting location.
Natthaphong successfully cast his ballot at the new station and urged all Bangkok voters to verify their polling details online before leaving home to avoid similar mix-ups.
