Oh well, now he can get back to his personal war on women now that his
political hopes took a beating.
President Barack Obama’s half-brother, Abong’o Malik Obama, won’t be
the second member of his family to launch a political career. Mr. Obama was
defeated in his bid to be governor of Kenya’s Siaya County this week in
what seems to have been a very large margin.
Mr. Obama is the eldest child of President Obama’s father. They have
different mothers. Mr. Obama served as the best man at the president’s
wedding to Michelle Obama in 1992.
According to the Daily Nation newspaper in Nairobi, the Siaya
gubernatorial race was won by Cornel Rasanga with William Oduol coming in
second. The Daily Nation did not report Mr. Obama totals, however the Kenyan
Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission, which oversaw the
elections and has been releasing sporadically updated results since Kenyans
headed to the polls Monday, published a partial count that showed him in
third place with just a little over one percent of the initial vote. Three
other candidates trailed behind Mr. Obama. A call from Politicker to the
IEBC Election Hotline this morning to inquire about the full count for the
Siaya gubernatorial election went unanswered.
Apparently Kenyan voters are a lot brighter than the low-information Obama
voters in this country. | t**********3 发帖数: 12623 | |
