Former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has proposed decentralizing presidential election result tallying to the constituency level in Kenya to prevent fraud and enhance transparency.

• Gachagua suggested that results announced at the constituency level should be final, eliminating the need for a national tally at Bomas of Kenya.
• He claimed that manipulation is more difficult at the grassroots compared to the contentious national tallying center, which he said has been a problem since 2007.
• The proposal aims to speed up results, with 290 returning officers for the presidential election, potentially yielding results by morning.
• Gachagua predicted a two-horse race in 2027 between President William Ruto and a single candidate from a "United Opposition," dismissing reports of infighting as attempts by President Ruto to infiltrate the opposition.
