Tired with Jubilee and not excited by NASA disgruntled voters might vote for fringe candidates and the protest Vote could deny either of the big two the 50%+1

The dreaded 2nd round will happen

And a winner will emerge and life goes on.Whoever will be ahead except for 50%+1 will still emerge the winner as his supporters will still be there and maybe gain a little more from the losers since people like being associated with the winners.

Who really dreads round 2?Its just that its an unnecessay extension of the political madness as well as the cost implication.

Someone said there is nothing like middocrass in Kenya just workers is it true

Please explain the voter turnout effect.
I agree my being very pedestrian in the thoughts.

Let me drop some numbers here. These are the voter turnouts in Kenya since 1992.

1992(69%), 1997(65%), 2002(57%), 2007(69%), 2013 (85.9%).

Which counties caused this unusual turnout in 2013?

Siaya (92%), Kisumu (90%), homabay (94%), kiambu (91%), Nyeri (93%), nyadarua (94%), Kirinyaga (91%).

For perspective, Belgium where voting is mandatory by law averages 95% turnout.

Question is can these counties sustain the same abnormal turnouts ?

Why did people turnout in these unusually high numbers ?

Are we likely to see a return to the normal range of 65%-80% ?

The age of the register and how well it's linked to the civil registry and how updated it is in reflecting deaths and movements is also a determining factor in turnout!

You can use that example to either increase or decrease the voter turnout depending on the what will trigger either low or high voter turnout mentioned by @FMR2011

Can only happen if Kenyans can vote outside their tribal goggles!
