"I trust my constituents will not abandon the man named Snoh, and my party might win up to 30 or 40 House seats," he said.
Snoh said he was ready to join a coalition government without any preconditions following the election.
Pracharaj candidates will proceed with their campaigning activities as planned even though Chat Thai Party deputy leader Chuwit Kamolvisit decided at the last minute not to join them, he added.
Pracharaj officials said their party had to revise its campaign strategy for Bangkok to make up for the loss of Chuwit as a magnet for votes.
Snoh was seen talking yesterday with his deputy Sombat Methanee, a popular actor-turned-politician who might have to lead the Bangkok campaigning in lieu of Chuwit.
