Can a Presidential Debate Influence a Voter’s Decision?
Most countries if not all are turning to presidential debates days or weeks ahead of a General election. They claim it is an opportunity to help the citizens get a better picture of the candidates, hence being being able to make the right decision during the voting day.
In these debates, the panelists prepare a list of questions for the candidates, especially about their past leadership experiences and their manifestos, sometimes to a point of crucifying them for the wrongs they have either done or been accused to have committed.
It is voluntary for a candidate to attend a debate, so at times some choose not to attend for either personal reasons, or even claims that the playing ground is not favorable for every player.
On a level ground or not, whether one attends or not, whether you are pushed to the corner by the panelists or you push them, the big question is, can a debate influence a voter’s decision? Does the audience come with an open mind or do they come only support their already preferred candidate?
Deputy presidential debate 2022, Kenya
For the first time in the political season, Deputy president William Ruto’s running mate Rigathi Gachagua nailed it and proven his capacity as a wort running mate during the deputy presidential candidate debate that happened on Tue, 19th June 2022 at the Catholic University of East Africa.
In his crafted answers to the questions asked by the panelists, he described how he and his principle will deal with state capture and corruption in their leadership, a thing that has revealed why and how Kenyans got themselves in the suffering and tribulations of the high cost of living and unemployment.
Many people have since changed their mind and choosen to follow the bottom up economy manifesto which Gachagua and his principle are spearheading in their Kenya Kwanza alliance headed by the UDA party.
Kenya goes into the elections in less than 18 days.
We wish Kenyans the best as they go into the ballot, and would like to remind them that peace is the only thing that Kenya needs above all others.
