New Deadline for Kenya.

According to France24 Kenya's Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) have declared that the non-certified results for Kenya's Presidential Election will be announced at 08:00GMT(11:00 local) on Saturday (9/3/13).

With 11, 689,017 votes counted Uhuru Kenyatta is in the lead with 5,862,689 votes (50.15%) while Raila Odinga is in second place with 5,065,481 votes (43.3%). Normally this would mean that Kenyatta has won outright avoiding the 50% threshold that would trigger an election run-off. However there is a very real possibility that Kenyatta has stolen up to 500,000 votes leaving him on only 45.8% . Therefore I would say that until the excluded votes issue is properly resolved Kenyatta needs to secure 53.3% of the vote to avoid a run-off. After all I worry about setting the precedent that the only way to avoid post-election violence is by appeasing the person who will carry out post-election violence.

On a completely unrelated note surely I can't be the only one who has noticed that there have been some highly suspicious cyber-attacks going on this week. Personally I think the Czech business is the Saudi's getting grumpy about the fact no-one seems to have noticed that they've been specifically sourcing weapons from the old Czechoslovakia to give to the Saudi and Qatari Irregular Army (SQIA) to raise discussion about my decision to dub the conflict in Syria "Operation Ostrava." Ostrava of course being the Czechoslovakian town in which Nazi Germany staged a series of false flag terror attacks in order to invade Czechoslovakia in 1938 under the pre-text of a humanitarian intervention.

In other new Rihanna is shortly going to take to the stage for the opening concert of her Diamonds Tour. All she needs to do now is find a way to convince herself that the people who are killing around 120 a day in Syria just to buy time specialise in happy endings.

23:30 on 8/3/13.
