Kenyans say no to new constitution- Guardian Unlimited

In a country where up to one third of the adult population is illiterate, ballot papers and political debate were simplified by representing the "yes" campaign with a banana and the "no" with an orange...

Electoral officials reported a largely clean vote from Kenya's 19,000 polling stations, despite reports of vote buying, registration problems and other electoral irregularities in some districts.
At least seven people were killed in often violent rallies and clashes leading up to yesterday's vote.
As tensions rose over the count yesterday, hundreds of people chased riot police from Nairobi's vast Kibera slum, a stronghold of a leading opponent of the constitution.
They also attacked a truck driver whom they suspected of planning to substitute ballot boxes stuffed with fraudulent votes for valid boxes.

Interesting that one third of those voting are illiterate. It would be interesting to do a study where you surveyed a sample and switched oranges and bananas and figured out whether there was a coorelation between fruit shape and outcome. And how glad are we that there isn't any violence surrounding elections here? I wonder why it is that our elections are so uneventful.
