REF: A. ANDRE/AF-E EMAIL DATED 07SEP07 
 
     B. 06 NAIROBI 5393 
 
1. (SBU) Summary:  Analysis of raw voter registration data 
reveals the approximate ethnic composition of the electorate, 
which differs somewhat from that of the general population. 
Given current ethnic voting bloc political alignments and 
assuming no major disparities in voter turnout, this data 
implies that the campaign season will open with President 
Mwai Kibaki favored by 52 percent of the electorate, Raila 
Odinga favored by 27 percent, and Kalonzo Musyoka favored by 
9 percent.  End Summary. 
 
2. (SBU) The U.S. Mission obtained raw voter registration 
data from the Electoral Commission of Kenya as of 28 May 2007 
(Ref A).  Our analysis of the data (Ref A) provides the 
following ethnic portrait of the Kenyan electorate.  Septels 
will examine gender and religious identification aspects of 
the electorate as well as implications for the future 
composition of parliament. 
 
Share of Electorate of Ethnic Voting Blocs 
------------------------------------------ 
 
3. (SBU) While this Mission and Kenyan civil society leaders 
warn Kenyan voters of the ills from ethnic bloc voting, the 
reality is that Kenyan politics continues to revolve around 
ethic identity rather than issues or the probity of political 
leaders.  Ref C contains an in-depth treatment of Kenya's 
ethnic voting blocs, including the estimated share of the 
population for each bloc.  Our analysis of voter registration 
data provides the share of the electorate for each major 
voting bloc.  We determined the majority ethnic community for 
each of Kenya's 210 constituencies, assigning some 
constituencies "mixed" status.  The results are provided 
below in descending order. 
 
4. (SBU) GEMA (Kikuyu and close linguistic cousins and 
traditional political allies the Meru and Embu):  Estimated 
share of the general population: 32 percent.  Share of 
registered voters: 28 percent.  Number of GEMA majority 
constituencies:  49 out of 210 (23 percent).  Constituency 
distribution: Nairobi: 2, Eastern: 13, Central: 30, Rift 
Valley: 4. 
 
5. (SBU) Our methodology undercounts GEMA because Kikuyu, to 
a greater extent than other Kenyan comunities, often live 
outside their majority areas.  Also, Kikuyu are a significant 
component of several large Nairobi "mixed" constituencies. 
 
6. (SBU) Kalenjin/Turkana: General Population: 10 percent. 
Electorate: 13%.  Consituencies: 33 out of 210 (15%). 
Distribution: Rift Valley: 32.  Western: 1. 
 
7. (SBU) "Kalenjin," like "Luhya" and "Mijikenda," is a name 
given to a loose collection of several distict communities. 
The Turkana are not considered Kalenjin, but vote with them. 
The Kalenjin voted as one during the reign of fellow Kalenjin 
President Daniel arap Moi, but are now losing their political 
cohesion. 
 
8. (SBU)  Luo: General population: 12 percent.  Electorate: 
10 percent.  Constituencies: 22 out of 210 (10 percent). 
Constituency Distribution: Nairobi: 1, Nyanza: 21. 
 
9. (SBU) Luo are numerous in several Nairobi mixed 
constiuencies and make up a clear majority in one. 
Therefore, our methodology somewhat undercounts Luos, but to 
a lesser degree than GEMA voters. 
 
10. (SBU) Luhya: General Population: 12 percent.  Electorate: 
10 percent.  Constituencies: 23 out of 210 (11 percent). 
Distribution: All Western Province. 
 
11. (SBU) Comment: The Luhya consist of sixteen distinct 
groups, speaking different languages and having different 
traditional political alliances.  Luhya leaders often urge 
"Luhya Unity," but in fact the Luhya do not behave as a 
unified voting bloc.  End Comment. 
12. (SBU) Kamba: General Population: 11 percent.  Electorate: 
 
NAIROBI 00003581  002 OF 002 
 
 
9 percent.  Constituencies: 17 out of 210 (8 percent). 
Distribution: all Eastern Province. 
 
13. (SBU) Mixed:  12 percent of the electorate live in 
ethnically mixed constituencies where no one group 
predominates.  Several of these constituencies have suffered 
significant political violence in the past. Septel on 
election "hot spots" will review these constituencies. 
Constituencies: 17 out 0f 210 (8 percent). 
 
14. (SBU) Other small groups: 
 
-- The Kisii and Kuria (the two minority communities in 
Luo-dominated Nyanza province) together account for 5 percent 
of the national electorate.  They usually vote in opposition 
to the Luo. 
 
-- The Mijikenda, a collection of nine coastal ethnic 
communities, also account for 5 percent of the electorate. 
They are only a semi-cohesive voting bloc. 
 
-- The Maasai and their Samburu cousins account for 3 percent 
of the electorate.  They tend to vote in opposition to the 
Kikuyu due to land competition concerns. 
 
-- The Somalis account for 2 percent of the electorate, but 
nearly all of the population of Northeastern Province.  They 
tend to identify with KANU, but also tend to support the 
government of the day.  Under current political allignments, 
that means pro-Kibaki. 
 
-- The Borana (Oromo; northern half of Eastern province), 
Taita (Coast province on Tanzania border), Pokomos (Tana 
River, Coast Province) and Swahili/Arab/Bajuns (Coast 
Province) are each under 1 percent of the electorate, but 
dominate certain constituencies and so generally have 
representation in parliament. 
 
Presumptive Presidential Electoral Alignments 
--------------------------------------------- 
 
15. (SBU)  According to conventional wisdom and traditional 
ethnic voting patterns, the campaign season will begin with 
the following presumptive ethnic voting bloc alignments, 
assuming a continued KANU/Kibaki alliance.  Of course, 
campaigning can influence these alignments, as can political 
deals with ethnic/political leaders during the course of the 
campaign.  Ultimately, it is voters who vote that determine 
the outcome.  This data cannot predict actual voter turnout. 
 
Mwai Kibaki (party not yet declared):  GEMA (28 percent), 
KANU-aligned elements of Kalenjin (7 percent), supporters of 
pro-Kibaki parties active in Western Province (5 percent), 
Kuria & Kisii (5 percent), supporters of pro-Kibaki parties 
active in Coast Province (half of Mijikenda, Taitas, Pokomos 
-- 4 percent), Somalis & Boranas (3 percent).  TOTAL: 52 
percent.  (NOTE: Kibaki scored 45 percent in the latest 
credible candidate preference poll.  END NOTE.) 
 
Raila Odinga (Orange Democratic Movement):  Luo (10 percent), 
Kalenjin (6 percent), Luhya (5 percent), Coast Province (half 
of Mijikendas, Swahilis/Bajuns/Arabs -- 3 percent), Maasai & 
Samburu (3 percent).  TOTAL: 27 percent.  (NOTE: Odinga 
scored 25 percent in the latest credible candidate preference 
poll.  END NOTE.) 
 
Kalonzo Musyoka (Orange Democratic Movement-Kenya):  Kamba (9 
percent).  (NOTE: Musyoka scored 11 percent in the latest 
credible candidate preference poll.  END NOTE.) 
 
16. (SBU) The remaining 12 percent of the electorate are 
registered in "mixed" constituencies.  To win the presidency, 
a candidate need only obtain a plurality of the vote and at 
least 25 percent in five of the eight provinces.
