Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) Chairperson Edung Ethekon confirmed a 99% functionality rate for KIEMS kits during the November 27 by-elections. He stated that thanks to enhanced transparency, improved technology, and strict audit trails, stealing an election in Kenya is now "an impossibility". Ethekon emphasized that the electoral system is designed to prevent manipulation without immediate detection. However, he also issued a severe warning about "super agents," identified as senior politicians, who allegedly disrupted elections through intimidation and unlawful interference. This interference was noted as a particular issue during the by-elections held on November 27.
