Machakos Deputy Governor Francis Mwangangi has urged the next electoral commission to fully integrate technology into Kenya’s election process. He highlighted that many countries achieve swift and transparent results through robust digitization and encouraged Kenya to follow suit.
Mwangangi emphasized the need for digital voter registration, voting, and result transmission to enhance fairness and accountability. He urged the incoming IEBC team to prioritize election digitization, ensuring credible and timely polls. While Kenya’s system includes some digital elements, manual verification slows results. He called for bold reforms to uphold electoral integrity and public trust.
