It will be interesting to understand what other factors (apart from ethnicity) tip an election at national level in Kenya. Is the middle class vote going to count? So keyboard warriors have a significant effect afterall<br>
@Coach, I am reading comments about the upcoming presidential debates and my conclusions is that people have already made their decisions and the debates are for other purposes. Would data really help to pull voters heartstrings? </p>
