03 MARCH 2013 - BANGKOK, THAILAND: . A Pheu Thai supporter flips her middle fingers at a television set when it was announced on TV that MR Sukhumbhand Paribatra, the incumbent running on the Democrat ticket, had won the election for Bangkok governor. Pongsapat Pongchareon, running on the Pheu Thai ticket, lost the Bangkok's Governor's race to MR Sukhumbhand Paribatra, the incumbent running on the Democrat ticket. Sukhumbhand won the race after scoring a record number of votes, more than 1.2 million to Pongsapat's 1 million. The results were seen as an upset even though Sukhumbhand was the incumbent because all of the pre-election polls and the exit polls conducted on election day showed Patsapong winning.
