Opinion polls only work in a normal democracy not where final outcome is decided by coming together of tribes. It is Tyranny of numbers that can only predict the outcome with some level of certainty in such a case.

Opinion polls have inherent biases due to the methodoligies used. Simple things such as whether to use phone calls to query the respondents, distribution of sample vis a vis population distribution, even what time of day the calls are made, will skew the result.
This is before you factor is more signifacant variables such as sample size, question structure, tester bias etc to the equation.

I'm sure there are enough vultures who have already been promised those posts. No room for someone who wants to work.

Oh well, yet again Kenyans defeat themselves. We will all be whining by August how serekali doesn't care for us!

I heard that UK may consider some of his competitors. I heard he said so.
