Five counties to have a decisive word on presidency

President Uhuru Kenyatta and NASA presidential candidate Raila Odinga

President Uhuru Kenyatta and NASA presidential candidate Raila Odinga have trained their sights on Western Kenya, parts of Nyanza and Maasai land as they scramble for swing votes.

In particular, the counties of Bungoma, Kisii, Nyamira, Narok and Kajiado — which have a total of 2,181,038 votes between them — may decide whether Uhuru will serve his second term or if Raila becomes Kenya’s fifth president.
