Slightly above 5.2 million new voters have been confirmed by the electoral agency to be eligible to vote in the August election.
The statistics from the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission comes after the clean-up of the voter register as recommended by KPMG.
It suggested the cleanup of the continuous voter register between 2013 and March to remove flaws that could lead to irregularities.
Among those targetted were dead voters and those who had registered more than once.
The Commission is by law expected to present the audited register in Parliament within 14 days. The register is expected to be presented before the National Assembly, which at the moment has been adjourned and can only be recalled for a special sitting.
Speaking to the Star on Sunday at the Jubilee Party headquarters in Pangani, National Assembly majority leader Adan Duale said the final register is key to establish campaign strategies.
“We expect the IEBC to provide to the nation the final register that will be used so that we can know where the numbers are,” Duale said.
Jubilee and NASA seek to raid vote-rich regions considered to be their rivals’ strongholds.
In the latest voter statistics, the Rift Valley takes the lion’s share with 1.2 million new voters registered since 2013, raising the number of voters from the previous 3,453,855 to 4,659,950.
