1: Kenya General Election Presidential Results

17:00 11 August  SEMI-LIVE BLOG (red indicates new or updated material)  

Presidency:
34As: 100% of form 34As (polling station results) are available online. Polling station result images are mostly clear and reliable when sampled.

34Bs: we now have 87+ real 34Bs (final constituency level totals). Some recorded on the site arent genuine.

As you can all see the main media portals for yourselves, totaling 34As, i'm going to focus on the 34B.
Nation: 1% lead for Ruto now,
Citizen: 0.5% for Raila
Standard: neck and neck
​
Rumours swirl that both sides have now manually added all the 34As so all know who has won.

​Turnout:
Turnouts will end up around 66%, roughly the same level as 1992, 1997 and 2007. 

Rigging/Problems: INCREASING
With 99% of the form 34As now in and thousands of Kenyans sampling and  adding them up themselves, including at least three public media parallel counts, there is very little anyone can do to adjust the presidential count now. Instead they are announcing their own count results which cannot unfortunately be believed.
​
But in the counts, its getting (typically) messy: (i use the old provinces as as well understood shorthand) Capturing these now allows us to compare them with the final results to see if the allegations manifested into anomalies in the final totals.

* Homa Bay: police arrested five planning to disrupt tallying in Homa Bay town and Kabondo Kasipul.

Results from 34Bs: with 70+, its getting more accurate, but still only a third or less

Note the huge impact of ethnicity on Luo and Kalenjin areas (as expected). Kikuyu areas and Kamba areas are showing more balanced results with a strong ethnic based vote but not monolithic: more like 80-20.  Ruto doing better in Gusii areas with more data.  Turkana has been added as a distinct region and Emurura Dikirr has been moved from Maasailand into the greater Kalenjin reporting unit. Two Somali results very good for Ruto,

Next is the county breakdown of 34B presidential results on the "iso-suffragiem" model, where 100K registered voters = 1 square. Royal Blue indicates 100% for Raila, bright yellow 100% for Ruto, green a mix.  ​Hopefully the idea is now clearer. The boxes are proportional to the number of registered voters in the county.

Result Prediction:

Adjusting for actual turnout and relative votes based on 88 real results, my model shows Ruto stretching his lead once all results are in, if they follow the ethno-regional patterns established so far (i.e Luo constituencies vote with a similar turnout and vote for Raila, Kalenjin for Ruto etc. IF. I don't understand how the media summaries of the 34As don't yet align with this - either something is fundamentally wrong or the media have been counting by county and there are more Ruto counties left to count than Raila. That will be a catastrophic mistake if true. Lets hope its something else (eg an error in my model).
