A flawed election begets a controversial rerun begets a colossal sham...Maina Kiai
Mombasa remains quiet and I was able to go to the bank today. Businesses were open but fewer people were out and about.
So far it looks like 33% of registered voters have voted (compared to 79% in the first polling) and 98% voted for the President. The rerun which was to be held tomorrow in Kisumu area has been postponed due to insecurity for the polling officials. The rerun has to be completed by Oct 31st and the result has to be announced by Nov 2nd.
Is anyone clean in this process? I can see big problems on both sides. Can they follow the rule of law and the constitution to avoid what happened in 2008?
