This editorial from Business Daily (a weekly Nairobi newspaper owned by Daily Nation) makes some relevant points:
1) The violence in the Rift Valley (and spreading further into Western Kenya and throughout the country) is getting close to no longer being related to the elections at all, but rather hitting on long-standing issues of inequity and perceptions of power imbalance.
2) Kenya needs a new constitution.
3) Ethnic tensions have really blossomed under Kibaki's democratically elected government, in great part because of the electoral process.
