    "content": " Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I stand to support the Bill. We have only 15 days left to register Kenyans as voters yet so many Kenyans are still being left out because of the Government’s failure to issue them with IDs. The Government is not giving ID cards to people who have been registered. People have been registered as Kenyans yet they have not received their IDs, which should be used to identify them as Kenyans. For that reason, let us allow Kenyans with provisional IDs, which are famously known as “waiting cards” to use them to register as voters and vote. Otherwise, it would be unfair and undemocratic to deny Kenyans, and particularly young people; the chance to vote."
