Machakos By Election

I respectifully disagree. This is a very good result for us in UDA. Winning around 20% of the vote in Machakos is just great.
To win presidential elections in Kenya, all you need are two large ethnic blocks and about 10% in the rest of the country. All Ruto nees to win are the Kale and Mt Kenya blocks PLUS 10 in Macha, Matungu, Msambweni etc. So far he's exceeding that.
We are on track.

Actually, if one is an incumbent President in Kenya, he just needs one major ethnic voting bloc. Kibaki proved it by defeating the toxic 40 Vs 1 political mantra in 2007. Moi held to power for 24 years by using the Kalenjin voting bloc as his ‘political fulcrum’.

Ruto is not a sitting president and he has Gideon and Kanu to out maneuver within Kalenjin politics.
While Uhuru has a lot to say on Mt. Kenya voting bloc.

@Mwalimu-G , the MCA's vote on BBI is an indicator that without Uhuru's support, DP will never sleep in statehouse as the big guy.
In my humble opinion, Uhuru is in total control of who will succeed him as President.
Ruto has a chance to be either a Prime Minister or deputy but not President.
In my opinion, DP and his Tanga Tanga brigade should for now lie low like envelops until Uhuru shows his cards.
Raila, again, is not in the equation as either President or PM in 2022. He knows it but will milk the situation financially and politically to the maximum.
Sow we as the people have no choice except for the ones fronted to us by the Elite?
