    "content": "Amendment to the Constitution is very important to this country. As Members of this House, we need to consider moving the general elections date either from August to December or leaving it in August as the Constitution says. Holding general elections in August affects the school calendar because when we hold elections, there is interference. I propose that we consider moving this date to December when people are relaxed. Kenyans are used to holding general elections in December. In December, there is no interference because people go to parties and enjoy visiting other people and seeing their relatives. That time can suit this country for holding elections. There are so many things which Members of Parliament consider, especially our children. We consider them more important than anything else. We need to pass this proposal to move the election date to December."
