Vote counting continues as Kenyans wait with bated breath

Kenyan electoral officials across the country are still counting votes, 12 hours after most polling stations closed.

A number of Kenyans are glued to different TV stations and media houses’ websites following up with the counting process that has been ongoing throughout the night.

IEBC chairman and national returning officer Wafula Chebukati on Tuesday said election results are being tallied at the National, county and constituency levels.

Constituency level deals with Members of the national assembly and members of the county assembly.

The national tallying centre at the Bomas of Kenya caters for presidential elections.

County tallying centres sort out the governor, senate and woman rep seats.

Speaking at the Bomas of Kenya, Chebukati said proper planning and management of tallying centres is key to a transparent and credible election.

As of 6.35 am, a record 42,238 polling stations had transmitted Form 34As to the national tallying center at Bomas of Kenya.

Electoral results for MPs, Governors, senators and women reps are out for some regions in the country while the exercise is ongoing in most regions.
