President William Ruto and Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna have recorded an identical 31% support rating in the latest TIFA opinion poll, highlighting significant changes in Kenya's political landscape ahead of the 2027 General Election.
According to the latest findings, Ruto's popularity has increased from 24% in previous TIFA ratings to 31%, while Sifuna has recorded an even bigger improvement, rising from 15% to 31%.
The latest figures place the two politicians at the same level in the presidential preference rankings, attracting attention as political activities surrounding the 2027 elections continue gaining momentum.
Sifuna's improved rating comes amid growing prominence of the Linda Mwananchi movement, which has been positioning itself as a political alternative while pushing for changes in the country's leadership.
The Nairobi senator has increasingly featured in national political discussions, with his supporters presenting him as one of the figures capable of challenging the current administration.
Meanwhile, Ruto's rating has also increased, reflecting his continued presence in the presidential contest as he seeks another term in office.
The survey further examined the popularity of political parties and movements, with the United Democratic Alliance emerging as the most popular formation with 25% support.
Linda Mwananchi follows with 17%, placing it ahead of the Orange Democratic Movement, which recorded 10%.
The party popularity figures provide another interesting dimension to the emerging political competition, particularly considering the ongoing disagreements within ODM over its political direction and relationship with the government.
Linda Mwananchi's 17% rating also highlights the movement's growing visibility in national politics.
With the 2027 elections approaching, the latest findings offer a snapshot of changing voter preferences, although polling figures do not determine the eventual election outcome.
The coming months will provide further opportunities to assess how political realignments and campaign activities influence public opinion.
