Raila leads

New Vision Online "NAIROBI, Friday — Opposition candidate Raila Odinga is leading in the race to govern Kenya in the next five years, according to early tallies by the Kenyan media.

Partial results from three main television stations all gave opposition challenger Raila Odinga, the son of a nationalist hero, a strong lead over his former ally, President Mwai Kibaki.

The unofficial results by the TV channels were compiled from tallies at counting centres. By early afternoon on Friday, with over 20% of the votes counted, the private channel KTN gave Odinga 1,862,573 votes to 1,179,271 for Kibaki."
