Predicting Patterns of Voter Behavior in Kenya's 2017 General Elections

Abstract:

The major conclusions of this study are presented by deconstructing and examining the outcomes of each hypothesis derived from the research questions formulated in chapter one. The two main research questions looked at how individual centered factors and arising situational factors influence voter behavior and while the analysis conducted in chapter four indicated that there is no statistically significant relationship between each of these factors and voter behavior, the implied effect is still present and important to note. This study sought to prove that there is a relationship between what we have termed as individual and situational centered factors and the manner in which Kenyan voters choose to behave at their polls as represented by their votes. Despite the analysis proving that there is no statistically significant relationship between the variables and voter behavior, the results from the respondent questionnaires demonstrated the preferences that individuals have when it comes to politics and how individual factors shape the way they vote. The section below further explores these issues, grouping them into representational clusters to show the impact of each group on the thought formation and voter behavior of individuals as derived from the data collected.
