In Nyanza, Senior IEBC officials were stuck with ballot boxes and papers in their offices the whole day as they could not get transport to distribute them to polling stations. Key polling stations in Kisumu Central and East constituencies, known for high voter turnout remained ghostly, with only a few dogs, chicken and street urchins hanging around. Opposition supporters used their padlocks to lock doors to classrooms and social halls where elections were to take place. In other places like Rarieda, Homa Bay and Migori, boulders, thorns, and mounds of soil were used to block access to polling stations.
