Thailand Vote Result Delayed Until Friday

The transcript discusses the current deadlock in the election, with both major parties claiming victory and needing to form coalition governments. The Senate, which is appointed by the military junta, plays a crucial role in determining the Prime Minister and the effectiveness of any government formed.
