"content": "Hon. Speaker, I am the boss in Trans Nzoia. I know Hon. Ferdinand Wanyonyi is trying to say that he is the boss, but he is in the Opposition. He works under me. He is my immediate neighbour. I have told him to come to the Jubilee Coalition to which, I know, he belongs. With these amendments, even the presidential candidates will be blocked. This is a big slaughter. They cannot hop. My friend knows where he belongs. Hon. Speaker, even my friend, Hon. Ng’eno, has run to the opposition. I know he is hopping, but he will hop back. The aspect of the election nomination rules that enables people to check the party biometric system 90 days before the elections gives voters an opportunity to ensure that they are in the register. During the last general elections, some people went to vote and found that their names were missing from the voter registers because they had been transferred to other polling stations without their knowledge. This provision gives us the opportunity to rectify such errors. We will be able to ensure that all the registered voters are in the right place. Regarding the issues of relaying the results from the polling stations directly, party agents will be able to know from the polling stations and the constituency tallying centres what their presidential candidates scored. That data can be reflected as preliminary results that will give us the direction the vote is headed. With those few remarks, I support the Bill."
