New word in town, the ballots we saw being delivered from Dubai are "DECOYS" actual ballots were printed in river road and marked and have also been counted already. Baba never amazes me anymore

Hadn't he suspended demos only last week? Or he realized morale is down and he needs a way to 'rejuvenate' his base ahead of 'major announcement' on wed w.r.t voting day?

Actually, turnout will be babu's lifeline

Fearing chaos, or because of actual chaos, many would be voters wont come out to vote in Nasa dominated areas and battleground counties

Should Uhuru end up getting something like 6.9 M votes due to violence and Raila absence apathy, Raila will be all over asking:

'kura milioni nane walitoa wapi?'

I doubt 10M is achievable. I fear for voters especially in areas that are 50-50 like Nairobi

Nasa volunteer goons or even paid up ones could be demanding to see your little finger

When it gets to that point, however much you believe in democracy and right to vote etc, leave the contest to Raila and Uhuru. You'll get another chance to vote

Remember there are demos on polling day. How will CBD voters go to their stations? How if after they get there will they vote when the goons try attack them and police lob teargas canisters? How many Kenyans are ready for such stress just for 1 vote? They'll give up saying the winner is known anyway...

Then Raila on the ballot excites mount kenya to vote...vote against him. With him out of the way, some may not bother to vote

Finally the other 5 elections are done and dusted. The guys who were fighting hard to see to see say Buzeki as governor now have no major factor to make them wake up early

An election without Baba in the ballot is boring. The fear he instills in some quarters brings out large numbers to vote against him, not necessarily to vote in favour of their candidates.

I wonder what his grounds for petition this time round will be now that he has declared he will not be participating, despite his name being on the ballot.
