They were also the first general elections run by the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission(IEBC) which has released the official list of candidates.[2] While it is not necessary to hold a degree to become e.g. president of the United States, a degree of a university recognised in Kenya is necessary to run for a gubernator seat.[3]       (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4Table of ContentsGubernatorial election[edit]Opinion Polling[edit]Prospective candidatures[edit]References[edit]Gubernatorial election[edit]CandidateRunning MateCoalitionPartyVotesArita, Eric MokuaMumma, Tom IgnatiusFORD\u2013People4068Kihoro, WanyiriOdula, OdhiamboIndependent4539Kidero, Evans OdhiamboMueke, J.
