@Architect. I like your analysis and here are the reasons. I do not expect the turnout to vary much from that in 2007 except in Nairobi where this time around some voters who had registered up country in 2007 are now registered in Nairobi. However, as the pollsters are predicting I expect Jubilee to gunner at least 40% of the votes in the county. Second, Uhuru is inheriting the Mt. Kenya voting brock from Kibaki intact despite those other small contenders (we can call them pretenders!!) who are also running for presidency in the region. On the other hand, Mudavadi and Ruto’s departure from ODM has greatly compromised OARs popularity in the vote rich brocks’ of rift-valley (which is now more jubilee) and Western. OARs merger with Kalonzo is certainly not going to help him make up for what he has lost by parting ways with Ruto and Mudavadi. Using provincial data of registered voters and putting into account the above observations my estimates show that Jubilee might take it during the first round with 52% of the votes.

Previous elections depended on cummulative periods of taking the voters card, this time round all the registered voters just took the cards the other day......expect a higher turnout compared to previous elections!!!!

Departure of Madvd, entry of Kalonzo net effect is gain given that Raila still retains a lot of support from Western.

@mcreggae, turnout in the 2010 referendum is very similar to the 2007 one. Very high numbers from Nyanza, Central and RV provinces then the rest follow.
Check here

http://en.wikipedia.org/...tional_referendum,_2010

Voter turnout 2010 72.18%


Voter turnout 2007 69%

http://www.idea.int/vt/c...view.cfm?CountryCode=KE

I dont see any miracles happening in March. Average turnout will still be between 68 to 73% with high turnout from Nyanza, RV and Central.

Kitui Turnout in 2007 was 65% and this was when Kalonzo was running for President. Now he is running for VP so expect more voter apathy.
The Coast, N Eastern, Eastern voters see no reason to brace the hot sun during voting day since their stakes are not high.
This time round, Central and RV will have unusually high turnout coz of the Hague issue,very high stakes.

I don't think so.

Kiambu has 860,716 voters. The next most populous county in central is Murang'a at 457,000, a difference of over 400,000 votes!

Point is, Kiambu is heavily urbanised with Githurai 45, Ruiru, Juja, Thika, Kiambu, Banana-Ruaka-Gachie area, Kabete, Uthiru-Kinoo-Kikuyu area being urban/peri-urban. People didn't get time to register in shags as they would have wanted, remember?

Do we know where this urban population is from? Muranga, Nyeri, Embu, Nyandarua, Turkana, Migori? I don't know! This being an urbanised county, the cosmopolitan population could mean Uhuru gets lower percentage at home than in other counties in the mountain!

I could be wrong...but Ruiru and Thika constituencies still have over 100,000 voters despite the split from Juja.

[quote=a4architect.com]By factoring in the % turnout, the excel documents give a pretty good idea of who will win the elections. Download here below

http://www.a4architect.c...c/elections-2013-excel/[/quote]
Your spreadsheet looks to me like what would happen during run-off without ICC factor.
Round 1- remove 10% from uhuru. Some of his base will vote pk while others will abstain.
Turn out in round 2 will depend on what ICC issue will turn out, but the odds slightly favour RAO in my view.
Though I will note vote Railonzo (for 2007 PEV reasons, 82 coup and loss of kibaki years 2003-2005, maize scandal, mollases, nyong'o reasons), I think that it is not a catastrophe for Kenya to have Odinga Presidency at this point in time. In my view this will erase the ‘historical injustices’ to Luo community whether real or imagined. The new constitution having been enacted means Raila cannot implement any radical form of majimbo, while a Jubilee parliament will check the executive. Uhuruto still have a chance to seek presidency even if they stay in Hague for the next 10 years. That’s after Railonzo and PK have done their terms.

A very good analysis by Architect and very intelligent observations from McReggae, Lolest! and Limanika.

This register contains living people who registered to vote. Architect, you could try by allocating about 95% turnout for all counties and also give Kiambu a lower percentage for Jubilee. Those Voters in Kiambu like Nairobi includes those who registered at the places of work (or their current temporary residence). This explains why the registration was more than 100%. The many educational institutions in Nairobi and Kiambu should help justify this. I expect Muranga and Kirinyaga to have more % votes for Jubilee than Kiambu. Please adjust Jubilles downwards for Kiambu. I looked through the % registration of Nyeri and noted that Nyeri town and Maathira had more than 100% registration and I think Dedan Kimathi and Karatina Universities could explain some of this. The effect in Kiambu is much bigger on this than in Nyeri.

Remember also that Kibaki got quite a number of votes from Kamba's who were sure Kalonzo would never win and especially in Nairobi. This time, I have a feeling they are voting Raila.

Not that I am Raila's supporter or even Uhuru's but I have always believed in working from a worst case scenario before counting my chicken...or is it eggs? I also have a very strong feeling that Jubilee supporters are seriously under estimating Cord.

It is wise for supporters of both parties started to prepare how to live with the other parties win......And especially Uhuru's Supporters

However,we are not underestimating cord,we are serious,they are a worthy opponent,that is why are on the campaign trail.

I have changed the % in Kiambu for Jubilee to 80%. Jubilee still wins with a very slight margin.

Kisii overwheminly voted for Kibaki.

1.This time round 80% of the Kisii vote will go to CORD. You need to factor that in.

2. The need to vote for governors will increase turn out across the country.

3. The turn out in Juja and other parts of Central cannot be replicated

@accelrisk. Check the document again. Kisii is filled in as 5% Jubilee and 95% CORD.
I have reduced Juja/Kiambu to 80% Jubilee and 20% CORD with turnout of 82.1% .

the communities behind jubilee have the numbers, if they can get the turnout in their strongholds high - this will be a first round win.

Moi and Kanu are supporting MM. In Rift Valley, the less the Chupilii gets the better for Cord Deffect.

Numbers dont lie, come 2nd round it will be tight ballgame
