From 08.00 to 15.00 on 26th April 2014, at the Phuket Election Commission Office, those on the electoral role in Patong City had the chance to vote for their chosen candidates for Patong Municipal Council Members and also the much talked about Patong City Mayor position.
The election saw 8,679 out of 12,651 registered voters turn out for the election, or 68.60% of voters.
Khun Chalermluck Kebsub (former Phuket MP) received 4,390 votes beating long term and controversial former Mayor Pian Keesin who received 3,330 votes. It is believed Khun Chalermluck Kebsub will be the face to reinvent the political face of Patong after seeing Khun Pian Keesin serving as Mayor for the last 20 years.
