    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, elections are emotive and this is clearly why it is important for us to provide for complementary mechanisms. If somebody was told to wait for two hours because he or she is unable to vote, you can imagine how volatile they can be, if somebody can be volatile to this extent when we are only discussing about a law. Every Kenyan must be provided with an opportunity to vote within good time, so that the stability of this country can be secured. Finally, I want to remind my colleagues on both sides that the Senate has won the admiration of all Kenyans on the basis of how we have conducted ourselves. One of the cardinal principles in a democracy is that people vote and accept the outcome. If we want to take this country forward we must believe that the outcome of a democratic process, like the one we had within the Committee and the one we are engaged in here, should be followed."
