释义 |
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is a political party in Kenya. HistoryThe PDP was established in 1992.[1] It won a single seat in the 2007 general elections,[2] Richard Momoima Onyonka in Kitutu Chache Constituency. In 2010 Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) MP James Omingo Magara defected to the party after the ODM did not nominate him as its candidate in the South Mugirango by-election, which was held after Magara's victory in the 2007 elections was annulled due to irregularities.[3] However, Magara was defeated in the by-election. Onyonka defected to the ODM prior to the 2013 general elections, in which the PDP nominated 22 candidates. It received 0.8% of the vote, again winning a single seat;[4] Onyango K'Oyoo in Muhoroni Constituency. However, K'Oyoo later defected to the ODM.[5] In the 2017 general elections the party only nominated nine candidates for the National Assembly,[6] with Magara being the sole Senatorial candidate.[7] The party won two seats in the National Assembly, Oroo Oyioka in Bonchari and Innocent Momanyi in Bobasi.[8] References1. ^[https://eisa.org.za/wep/ken2010parties.htm Kenya: Registered political parties 2010] EISA {{Kenyan political parties}}{{Kenya-stub}}{{Party-stub}}2. ^Elections held in 2007 IPU 3. ^Magara loses South Mugirango seat Daily Nation, 17 December 2009 4. ^Last elections IPU 5. ^MP Onyango K'Oyoo to defend seat on an ODM ticket Kisumu County News, 28 January 6. ^Peoples Democratic Party candidates in the 2017 National Assembly Election Mzalendo 7. ^Peoples Democratic Party candidates in the 2017 Senate Election Mzalendo 8. ^Magara, Nyamweya lose bids, but their parties win 4 seats The Star, 12 August 2017 3 : Political parties in Kenya|Political parties established in 1992|1992 establishments in Kenya |
