ANC leader Musalia Mudavadi faces a daunting task to lock out his ODM counterpart Raila Odinga, Deputy President William Ruto and others from Western and ensure residents put their votes in one basket.

Despite being a top Luhya politician, the ANC leader does not enjoy the majority support of Western voters, unlike the DP and Raila who have a fanatical following in their Rift Valley and Nyanza backyards.
