The Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) is conducting by-elections on November 27, 2025, in various constituencies across the country.

The vacant seats were left vacant due to death, resignation, among other reasons.

IEBC has a system for transmitting provisional results electronically to an observation center, which is referred to as Results Transmission and Presentation (RTS).

According to the Commission, after the voting exercise has ended and votes have been counted and tallied, the Presiding Officers (Pos) enter the data on the signed results sheet (Form 35) into specially configured mobile phones and transmit the results simultaneously to the election results centres at the constituency, county, and national level.

How RTS is Used

Enhance transparency through the electronic transmission of provisional results from the polling stations

Display and visualize provisional results at the tally centers

Provide access to provisional elections data to media and other stakeholders in real time.
