    "content": "Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, when hon. Members speak, they speak from diverse backgrounds. I would not want to question why Mr. Kabogo would think someone would not register twice mistakenly because maybe the level of education of people in Juja Constituency does not compare to the level of education of people in northern Kenya. So, they might very well know the process of registration. Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, until and unless we are able to educate our voters on the process of registration and the repercussions thereof, then the aspects of voters registering twice, not because they want to rig elections, but because of the ignorance of whatever it pertains, or even to the fact that they are not aware that they are registering twice--- You cannot punish someone twice. We either have to remove the fines and imprisonment we are talking about and make it the offences committed and punish him by not allowing him or her to vote. That is one punishment. So, the issue of double jeopardy as has been said by Mr. Mungatana shows that you are punishing someone twice for one offence committed, which I think even by all standards and laws does not apply. I support the amendment."
