Recent polling data from Vihiga County shows the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) maintaining a commanding lead with 51.9% support, far ahead of the United Democratic Alliance (UDA), which stands at 18.3%. The Democratic Congress Party (DCP) follows distantly in third place at 3.2%. However, analysts say the most notable finding is the sizable bloc of undecided voters, who make up 20.0% of the electorate.
This significant pool of undecided residents indicates that despite ODM’s strong footing in the county, the political landscape remains fluid. Observers note that the large undecided segment could ultimately shift the balance, depending on how effectively parties engage voters in the coming months. While ODM holds a comfortable lead, the data suggests that many voters are still weighing their choices and may be swayed by campaign messaging, development track records, or emerging alliances.
With nearly one in five voters yet to align themselves, political players in Vihiga are expected to intensify grassroots outreach as they seek to consolidate support ahead of future elections.
