The explosions all occurred about 20 minutes after polls closed at 3 p.m. (4 a.m. EDT), said Narathiwat provincial police chief Maj. Gen. Yongyuth Charoenwanit.
Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra called the snap elections three years early in an attempt to end growing anti-government protests demanding his resignation.
