Anti-government protesters have dismissed Sunday's snap elections in Thailand and vow to continue mass street protests to topple the caretaker government of Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra.
The main opposition Democrat Party boycotted the elections, and protesters obstructed voting by blocking the distribution of ballots and preventing voters from entering polling stations in scores of constituencies.
The caretaker government has said it will hold a second round of polls for about 10 percent of people who were not able to vote Sunday. However, the Election Commission said Monday it cannot schedule a make-up election until the protests end.
Protesters said Monday they have no intention of leaving the streets and will fight to annul the election on several levels, including a legal requirement that an election take place in one day.
In the meantime, protesters are dismantling some of their camps to consolidate their numbers at other sites.
Results from the vote are not expected for weeks, with the winning party unable to form a new government until polls are held in the disrupted districts.
