Surely, I do not need to have even done elementary statistics to know that the polls released by Synovate on Saturday were a complete sham. They cannot fool Kenyans that the ODM's star is rising when we all know very well that the party is seriously divided down the middle. The current storm arising from the differences betweem RAO and Samoie has threated the party's stability like never before.

Synovate are a big sham. Their methodology involves use of the very archaic diary method, and on top of this, their panels are very small(usually around 1000 people).
There's always glaring errors in their reports, e.g in their digital analysis report, they claimed that there are more Facebook users than e-mail users(yet you need e-mail to use Facebook)

My million dollar question is, is the PM as popular as he was in 2007? Having lost the entire kalenjin loyalty n a big chunk of fanatics, I doubt he can get 40%. In the last elections, he barely garnered 45% with an apparently overwhelming support. Just my poor thoughts.

The PM may not be as popular as he was in '07 but the million dollar question is - does he hv any serious challenger ? or is the next prezzo lurking someone waiting for an opportune moment?

I believe synovate.Remember the 'too close to call' poll before 07?Again, as much as Arap Odinga has lost Kalenjin vote, he has gained immensely among the GEMA communities
