Some sharp guys pointed out that ICC was becoming the main issue and the election would be a referendum on ICC/sovereignty. But their voices were drowned by the pre-election celebration mood.
Most guys assumed the winning was a fait accompli'. That lesson has been painfully learnt. Caution is the word in 2017.
Just a month to the elections and there is no screaming issue to separate the 2 main candidates. Does it get more boring than this? Too boring to even have the presidential debate.
Frm is helping himself to a humble pie too early...Caution??
I can tell you for sure from where am

@sheri, You are right. This is the first time I have been inside a serious political party campaign. I have learnt more than what I would get from a political science degree from UoN.
@ Wukan, It is the lack of a screaming issue as you put it that makes me uncomfortable. Our numbers are as encouraging as they can be. Those who observe trends know 30 days is still a very long time in politics. Waititu took Kiambu in the last 5 days of campaign.
In 2013, a URP wave swept over Narok and changed dynamics completely. From a projection of 80% for ODM, to a 50/50. In Kisii & Nyamira, Uhuru's 150,000 votes were a shocker to ODM. Their analysts had missed it completely.
