[LIVE] Calm returns to Kenya as vote tallying continues

Polls have officially closed in Kenya and vote tallying is ongoing.

Opposition leader Raila Odinga says the elections database was hacked and the results breached using the murdered EC official’s identity.

The IEBC disputes the claims but assured that investigations will be carried out.

Police fired teargas in Kisumu and Mathare to disperse protesting supporters of Odinga who were agitating against the provisional results.

Out of the over 80% of votes counted Wednesday morning, Uhuru Kenyatta leads with 7,618,943 votes and Raila Odinga trails with 6241496 votes from 37,514 out of 40,883 polling stations, according to IEBC.
