The governors’ posts have attracted 106 aspirants, with the slots being only 42. Among the areas that the party will have a real battle is Nairobi, Kiambu and Kirinyaga.
The party will have 161 Senatorial aspirants, who will be vying for the available 45 posts.

The parliamentary seats will see a number of 1006 aspirants, who will be out to fight for the 261 available slots.
The women representative post has attracted 171 aspirants, who will be going to for the 44 available slots.
