Raila, Ruto teams to set up parallel tallying centres

"We have more than representatives, we have enough agents across the country. And we have a very robust management system that will ensure every polling station to the polling centre will be effectively manned and on the results transmission day, we have necessary tools to ensure that the results are tallied accurately. And I assure you that we will be the fist ones to call this election," Kanchory said during an interview with Citizen TV on Tuesday.

On her part, United Democratic Alliance Secretary General Veronica Maina said that every vote that will be casted in favour of Ruto will be accounted for.

"We have ensured that all the polling stations across the 47 counties will have our agents. And we assure all our voters that no vote which will be casted in favor of our presidential candidate will go to waste. It will be counted and tallied. We will have a very specific view that every vote casted in a station is the same declared by the presiding officer," Maina said.

Kanchory and Maina, however, clarified that the results they will be tallying will be those counted and announced by the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) at the polling stations level.
