Audio By Vocalize
The polls are taking place in select regions where vacancies have arisen following the death of officeholders or court decisions nullifying previous results.
The seats up for contest span both parliamentary and ward-level representation, drawing nationwide attention as political parties seek to solidify influence and test voter sentiment ahead of the General Election in 2027.
Several constituencies have attracted keen interest, among them Mbeere North, Ugunja, Malava, Magarini and Kasipul, where voters will elect new Members of Parliament.
In Baringo, the electorate will be seeking to vote in a new senator.
Political pundits posit that these contests could serve as an early indicator of party strength and shifting regional alliances ahead of 2027.
At the county assembly level, by-elections are set for multiple wards across the country. These include Chewani in Tana River, Narok Town in Narok, Tembelio in Uasin Gishu, and Lake Zone and Nana-am in Turkana. Residents of Kisia East, Kabuchai/Chwele, Purko, Ang’ata Nanyokie, Chemundu/Kapng’etuny and Metkei in Elgeyo Marakwet will also be casting their votes.
In the western region, by-elections will run in Nyansiongo, Nyamaiya and Ekerenyo wards in Nyamira County. Urban centres are not exempt, with Mumbuni North in Machakos and Kariobangi North in Nairobi also heading to the polls.
