Letasio bows out, humble in defeat after Baringo blowout

The guy who came fifth in the Baringo Senate race just dropped a concession note after pulling 488 votes against the winner's 55,000-plus showing. Samuel Letasio said he ran into the contest with basically zero time to prep, and he couldn't afford to plant agents at most polling stations to watch for sketchy behavior. He mentioned hearing about irregularities but admitted he lacked the cash and manpower to fight back properly.

Letasio thanked his supporters for scraping together whatever they could to keep his campaign limping forward, and he told young voters to get their act together before the general election rolls around. He congratulated Vincent Chemitei on the win and asked him to actually follow through on campaign promises, but made it clear he plans to stay in the political game for another shot down the road.
