Swiss Poll International has released a new survey evaluating voter preferences in the Bahati parliamentary constituency ahead of the 2027 General Election. The survey, conducted among 3,563 registered voters, shows incumbent MP Irene Njoki Mrembo holding a significant lead over her competitors.

The poll was carried out with a margin of error of +/- 3.0% and a 95% confidence level, reflecting robust statistical reliability.

Survey Results

  • Irene Njoki Mrembo: 42.4% (1,511 votes)
  • Mary Justus Mannabay: 22.2% (791 votes)
  • Wahome Jambo Kenya: 17.6% (628 votes)
  • Njenga wa Waithera: 8.0% (284 votes)
  • Mwangi Ngumo: 7.3% (259 votes)
  • Undecided voters: 2.5% (90 respondents)

The results indicate a 20.2 percentage point lead for Mrembo over her closest rival, Mary Justus Mannabay, suggesting a strong position for the incumbent at this stage of the electoral cycle. However, the undecided voters and those supporting lower-ranked candidates could still influence the final outcome as the election approaches.
