While releasing the new poll figures to the media at the Infotrak offices in Lavington, Nairobi, Infotrak CEO, Angela Ambitho, insisted that the pollster used the IEBC’s register to guide their sampling.

“We only spoke to registered voters and those who clearly stated that they intend to vote,” said Angela Ambitho as reported by Citizen TV.

Ms Ambitho has ruled out any possibility of a run-off even though the  poll clearly showed neither Raila nor Uhuru would surpass the 50 per cent plus 1 vote required to win the Presidency in the first round.

In a previous Infotrak poll released about a week ago,Raila was still leading with a 47% approval rating, compared to President Uhuru Kenyatta’s 46%. Undecided voters were around 6%.
