According to polls carried out this evening on 2 local TV channels NTV and KTN where viewers were asked the question; “Do you think that the general elections will be rigged?” most Kenyans (over 50% on NTV) believe that the 2007 general elections will be rigged.
In fact the KTN poll had 78% of the respondents saying that they believed the polls will be rigged!!!
Let us not split hairs here. In this case the fact of the matter either way is irrelevant what matters is perception (what the public thinks). It seems that all the things the Kibaki administration has been doing like arrogantly appointing ECK commissioners without consulting the opposition have not gone unnoticed by the public.
In my view this is a national crisis, coming barely 7 weeks to the polls.
