Pheu Thai divided over city race pick

Sudarat considered a compatible sparring partner for Sukhumbhand - Deputy police chief describes himself as a possible 'false target' of media speculation - Former MRTA head hopes to bring the same success to his new job as state railway governor

    This article suggest that vote buying even goes on, openly, in Puea Thai's internal votes, some political party eh?
    Given how the female factor worked wonders for Yingluck, might help Sudaret.
    Another ( tongue in cheek) method would be to trace back their bloodlines to see if either of them are remotely related to Thaksin.
