Exit polls on elections in Kenya

Researchers have been carrying out exit polls in Kenya since 2007, with an aim of explaining voting patterns and reasons voters give for voting particular candidates. The first exit poll was done in 2007, another one was done during 2013 general elections and the latest during the 2017 elections.

An election exit poll is one that is conducted immediately after voters have exited the polling stations with an objective of finding out how the respondents voted but more specifically, understand respondents demographics, voters experience at the polling centre, main reasons why they voted for a particular candidate and understand when they made a decision to vote for their favorite candidates.
