I have been following closely the voting in Kenya today for a new constitution. My friend Daniel Lipparelli, from Kitale, has been posting updates on his blog dlipparelli.blogspot.com and so far there does not appear to be any violence.
Kenya is 7 hours ahead of us and a while ago the YES votes were leading over the NO votes. If this continues it means that there will finally be a new constitution, which was promised after the violent elections in 2007.
In 1012 Kenya will have another National election and hope is there that after this constitutional vote, there will not be any violence during and after that election.
My hope is that everyone stays safe in Kenya over the next few days while all the counting takes place and that people accept whatever the vote dictates.
