Kenya holds new presidential election amid call for boycott

Supporters of Kenyan opposition leader Raila Odinga cheer and dance during a rain shower, one holding a poster of Odinga with the Swahili word for “Chairman” referring to Odinga, as they await his arrival at a rally in Uhuru Park in downtown Nairobi, Kenya Wednesday, Oct. 25, 2017. Odinga urged his supporters to boycott a rerun of the country’s disputed presidential election scheduled for Thursday amid rising political tensions and fears of violence, and called on his political coalition to become a “resistance movement”.
