Kenya’s electoral processes have faced scrutiny regarding adherence to democratic principles. Recent by-elections have raised concerns about irregularities and potential undermining of the popular vote.
The Elections Observation Group (ELOG) has reported significant issues during the November 2025 by-elections. These included instances of voter bribery, intimidation of voters, breaches of ballot secrecy, and the dissemination of disinformation.
These reported occurrences suggest a breakdown in the electoral process, potentially diminishing the legitimacy of election outcomes and raising questions about the integrity of Kenya’s democratic system. The issues observed are described as hallmarks of a flawed process that undermines the will of the Kenyan people.
