CORD COMPLAINS


The Coalition for Reforms and Democracy (CORD) had complained that the commission had failed to include results from 11 constituencies in its final tally.

The constituencies whose results the coalition claimed had been left out of the tabulated results include Kitui South, Kubuachai, Changamwe, Kanduyi, Homa Bay ,Ganze ,Vihiga, Khamisi, Magarini, Kitutu Chache, and Mumias East.

Mr Odinga had garnered 281,611 votes in the 11 constituencies while Mr Kenyatta had garnered 25,863. The results had initially not been captured in the tallying screen.

If included in the final tally Mr Odinga could narrow the gap with his main rival Uhuru Kenyatta.

Cord had earlier written to the IEBC chairman drawing his attention to the anomaly, but attempts to engage him flopped as security officers blocked agents from accessing him.
