Hi everyone. Is anybody keeping track of today's ruling on Constituency and County assembly ward boundaries? Reckon it will generate quite a bit of reference material for wikipedia pages covering devolution, provincial administration, and elections in Kenya. _

I second Branton. Even if its just an informal cup of tea somewhere to clear the air and create channels to work out differences in house, it makes sense for the board members to come together and establish commo ground before the September 8th meeting. It's really depressing as a new member t

I reckon Dennis's suggestion of a meet up is the best place to post out these things. Though There's a 97% chance I won't be there, my feeling is we should first establish who from the old group still want to give the project another go, then chase after new blood. On the name front I'm for sta
