Early results for commune election

Cambodia news in English! Here you'll find all the breaking news from Cambodia translated into English for our international readership and expat community to read and comment on. The majority of our news stories are gathered from the local Khmer newspapers, but we also bring you newsworthy media from Cambodia before you read them anywhere else. Because of the huge population of the capital city, most articles are from Phnom Penh, but Siem Reap, Sihanoukville, and Kampot often make the headlines as well. We report on all arrests and deaths of foreigners in Cambodia, and the details often come from the Cambodian police or local Khmer journalists. As an ASEAN news outlet, we also publish regional news and events from our neighboring countries. We also share local Khmer news stories that you won't find in English anywhere else. If you're looking for a certain article, you may use our site's search feature to find it quickly.

Early results for commune election

Post by StroppyChops »

Government affiliated Fresh News is reporting the CPP won 1163 communes, compared to 482 for the opposition CNRP. These are unofficial results in today’s Commune Election, the first local vote in Cambodia in five years. The NEC vote-count is trailing. Popular vote totals yet to come.

Commune elections 2017: CPP wins 70%
Opposition makes strong gains, but falls short of aspirations
By Post Staff in Phnom Penh, Takeo and Prey Veng Monday, June 5, 2017
The Cambodian People’s Party won 70 percent of the country’s 1,646 commune councils at yesterday’s elections, according to unofficial results published by a government-aligned media outlet – a marked drop from the 97 percent it won in 2012 but one far smaller than the opposition had been hoping to inflict.
Around the country, the CNRP made the largest of its gains in Phnom Penh, Battambang, Siem Reap and Kampong Cham – the home province of Prime Minister HE, where the opposition won 76 of the 109 communes on offer, according to the unofficial results published by Fresh News.

In Phnom Penh, the CNRP took 54 communes to the CPP’s 51, preliminary results showed, while in Battambang it won 48 communes to the CPP’s 54 – having won none of the communes in the province at the 2012 vote. In Siem Reap, the CNRP won 56 to the CPP’s 44.

The CPP had its most devastating victories in provinces like Pursat, where it won all of the 49 communes; Stung Treng, where it won 33 communes to the CNRP’s one; and the tiny seaside province of Kep, where it won all of the five communes available.

HE wins but opposition gains at pivotal poll
The leader's ruling Cambodian People's Party swept national commune elections but the result shows the Cambodia National Rescue Party still has popular momentum.
