Voting in Kenya: Putting Ethnicity in Perspective

Michaël Bratton, Mwangi S. Kimenyi · 1 May 2008

Abstract Do Kenyans vote according to ethnic identities or policy interests? Based on results from a national probability sample survey conducted in December 2007, this article shows that, while ethnic origins drive voting patterns, elections in Kenya amount to more than a mere ethnic census.

This paper…
