{{Use British English|date=May 2013}}{{Use dmy dates|date=May 2013}}Local elections were held in Nairobi County to elect a Governor and County Assembly on 4 March 2013.[1] Under the new constitution, which was passed in a 2010 referendum, the 2013 general election was the first where there would be election of County governors and their deputies for the 47 newly created counties. They were also the first general elections run by the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission(IEBC) which has released the official list of candidates.[2] While it is not necessary to hold a degree to become e.g. president of the United States, a degree of a university recognised in Kenya is necessary to run for a gubernator seat.[3]Gubernatorial election| Candidate | Running Mate | Coalition | Party | Votes |
