This is the first by-election by the IIEC. The defunct ECK handled a number of by-elections that went without a hitch too. No prizes yet. Those celebrating thin wins have fallen for PNU tricks. It is not in PNU's strategy to necessarily win in those areas,but just maintain above 35% following there. When the day of recoking comes,ODM will never know what hit them as long as they cede 35%+ in those zones. Get the drift ! Things arent always the way they look like

Why does McReggae's celebration 'feel' clumsy like it belongs to another period long time ago?

ODM dying?that's not gonna happen anytime soon.in fact ODM wil live longer than kanu has.it's not a wonder it won both.For ODM to die,either Gema has to stop existing or Gema joins it...In short the party is based on anti-kikuyuism and will win all by-elections outside central,eastrn and nairobi Trust God and follow his commands for this is the whole duty of man- Eccl 12:13

Kadonye,ni kweli lakini.............as it was in the beginning is now and ever shall be.. with ODM? ..... it is the 2007-08 feeling that just does not appeal.

@ mcreggae pnu mustve bn very bitter 4 the bomachoge loss.i don thnk they had any stakes in shinyalu.but to them south nyanza is the least anti-kikuyu bloc in the country(since ODM support is directly proportional to kikuyuphobia). And then the narrow loss... @brewer i don know who the ODM strategist is but he sure is a smart 1. He found a strong base in antikikuyuism. In 02,NARC united coz of moiphobia in 07 twas kyukphobia. After 02 moi retired 2 a quiet lyf n NARC died. But after 07 ODM got stronger since Gema wasnt going to vanish from political scene like moi did. I predict itl win 2012 with at least 60pc Trust God and follow his commands for this is the whole duty of man- Eccl 12:13
