Voters in Nonthaburi province are heading to the polls today to elect a new Provincial Administrative Organization (PAO) president.

On September 20, 2026, residents of Nonthaburi province began casting their ballots for the Provincial Administrative Organization (PAO) presidential election. Polls opened at 8:00 a.m. across the province, with candidates and citizens participating in the democratic process.

Among those who cast their votes early was Decharat Sukkamnerd, a candidate representing the People's Party, who voted at a polling station in Bang Bua Thong district. In comments to the media, Decharat encouraged citizens to exercise their right to vote early, citing concerns that potential afternoon rainfall might discourage turnout. He emphasized that the final outcome rests with the voters' decision.

For residents and visitors in the area, the election process is being managed by local officials who are facilitating the voting flow and ensuring order. While turnout was reported as steady during the morning hours, it was not described as dense. Voters are reminded to verify their designated polling stations and carry valid identification cards to ensure a smooth process.

As of now, the official results remain to be confirmed. Candidates are expected to gather at the Nonthaburi PAO election headquarters on Ratchaphruek Road later this evening to monitor the vote count. Residents should anticipate potential localized traffic or minor disruptions near election centers as the day progresses.
