# 2025 Thai Provincial Administrative Organization election

Local elections were held in Thailand on 1 February 2025 to elect members and leaders of Provincial Administrative Organizations (PAO) in 76 provinces. In 47 provinces, both PAO chairs and members were elected, in 29 provinces, only members were elected.

## Results

In the 47 provinces where PAO presidential elections were held, unofficial results as of 23:00 local time were:
| Party | PAO Chairman |
| Pheu Thai | 10 provinces |
| Independent | 35 provinces |
| Chart Thai Pattana | 1 province |
| People's | 1 province |
The ruling Pheu Thai Party led in unofficial results. The People's Party claimed its first victory in a provincial-level election, with the election of Weeradej Phupisit as PAO Chairman of Lamphun province. Weeradej defeated former PAO Chairman and cabinet minister Anusorn Wongwan. Neither of the People's Party's progressive predecessors (Future Forward Party and Move Forward Party) won a PAO leadership election. The Election Commission (EC) expects a 65% voter turnout, out of 47,178,655 eligible voters. In Chiang Mai, turnout likely exceeded 75%, attributed to the intense competition between the Pheu Thai Party and opposition People's Party.
