August is just a terrible month to hold elections - rain and cold in many parts would just complicate matters.

....sounds reasonable, August was rather ambitious....we need time to agree on boundaries etc meanwhile its ok for Kenyans to have all other erections in December......an earlier erection is not a good idea

You've all missed the point. Hidden in the bill is the real bill - removal of the two third gender requirement. Remove this from the Bill and as far as I'm concerned you can have the next election in 2030 for all I care. As long as the gender rule is there I will not support the bill.

GG, I beg to differ.....the gender rule requires a referendum, this does not!!!

Wrong. There is no intention to remove the gender rule.
