"content": "I have said many times in this House that if it were possible, I would want us to make voting a mandatory exercise, so that every Kenyan must be pushed or coerced to vote. It is a democratic right. With that in mind, I am not convinced that people will not be able to travel to their rural areas to vote. It is very clear that if I cannot go to Kitui to vote, I can vote in Nairobi. We have Hon. Members like Hon. Mawathe whom I can vote for or Hon. Oluoch who is about to move a Motion here. If I do not want to travel, I can easily register in Nairobi and vote for one of the Members in Nairobi. I am not convinced that the reasons Hon. Wamalwa gave to this House will make me vote yes for this Bill."
