  Here are some shots i took yesterday at a few polling stations around Eldoret.It was so hot, but people braved the heat and queued in order to vote. By and large it went smoothly in some stations, though in the hospital ward, it was quite inefficient with lines snaking around the corner. There was alittle tear gas in the air from fracas on the previous day but people still soldiered on.
  I am a bit bleary eyed as we were camped around the radio after the fuel for the generator ran out. Cant do live updates, been checking
  KenyanPundit
  and

  on my cell phone.

  Twittered the elections a little and will add more periodically during the day

  Btw - Nicholas Biwott is out in Kerio south
  - Peris Chepchumba elected as MP Eldoret South despite intimidation and insults from men
  Other women in Rift Valley made it through and might constitute a chunk of women MPs in the next parliament.

Blah blah blah

Fish cakes

Alas a fish cake.

Yet more fish cakes

Guess what ... yeah ... fish cakes.

The end of the fish cakes
