Among the proposed changes, the treatment of election results has drawn particular attention, with the National Assembly addressing reports about the implications of its amendments for the live-streaming of results.

Kenya’s electoral laws could change ahead of the 2027 General Election, with proposed amendments affecting voter registration, political party nominations, the recall of members of Parliament and the handling of election disputes.

The Elections (Amendment) (No. 2) Bill, 2024, was passed by the National Assembly on October 22, 2026, with amendments. It had earlier been passed by the Senate and will now return to the Senate for consideration of the changes.
