The Democratic Party has vowed to oppose proposed changes to electoral laws that it says could weaken transparency in the transmission and announcement of election results ahead of the 2027 General Election.
Party leader Justin Muturi said the party would resist any legislative measures that undermine public scrutiny of election results, arguing that such changes would threaten constitutional democracy and erode public confidence in electoral institutions.
In a statement, Muturi said the party was opposed to any proposal that weakened safeguards intended to ensure Kenyans could independently follow and verify the electoral process.
