Thanks for the detailed info. Now we can gloat - at least there’s now the prospect of a much BETTER constitution.
The reason why Naivasha flower farm workers were not given time off to go vote is because ‘Baks people are either owners or shareholders in those farms and the majority of those workers are staunch Oranges based on tribe (from Nyanza and Western).

You are welcome!

I have been trying to vicariously get a feel of how the day really was like by reading Kenyan online dailies with no luck. Thanks for your report, Ory, which is very informative. Thank heavens for bloggers

You are welcome!

the high levels of illiteracy in the rural areas is rather alarming , a good percentage of the voters in these regions did not have a clue on what the vote was all about
