Election process
Kenyans are used to watching election results arrive in real time. At the polling station, the presiding officer reads out the numbers and posts the result form.
Citizens, journalists and party agents then follow the tally as it builds. Parliament is now considering a change that would remove the legal duty to provide that live feed. Few things in Kenyan law carry more history than this one.
