Bungoma Senator Moses Wetangula is on an observer mission in the US mid-term elections.
The former Senate Minority Leader is in Washington as the country prepares to go to polls in what many view as a referendum on President Donald Trump's first two years in office.
"In Washington to observe American (US) mid-term elections. Lets reform and enable our country to conduct future elections with less destructive disputes," Wetangula observed.
The elections are crucial for Trump as his control of the U.S House of Representatives and Senate lie on the balance.
"The results could impact his ability to enact policies during the second half of his four-year term," reads an article on Voice of America.
Earlier, Trump stated that he would sign an executive order ending so-called birthright citizenship in the US.
"We're the only country in the world where a person comes in, has a baby, and the baby is essentially a citizen of the United States with all of those benefits. It's ridiculous. It's ridiculous. And it has to end. Actually, around 30 countries grant automatic citizenship," he stated.
In the mid-terms, 36 out of 50 states will hold elections for governor with more than 30 million people taking advantage of early voting or absentee ballots in their respective states.
At the same time, Facebook blocked 30 accounts and 85 Instagram accounts as part of efforts to prevent spreading of fake news and disinformation on the social media platforms.
"Our very early-stage investigation has so far identified around 30 Facebook accounts and 85 Instagram accounts that may be engaged in the coordinated inauthentic behaviour. We immediately blocked these accounts and are now investigating them in more detail.
"Almost all the Facebook Pages associated with these accounts appear to be in the French or Russian languages, while the Instagram accounts seem to have mostly been in English — some were focused on celebrities, others political debate," read a statement by Facebook Head of Cybersecurity Policy, Nathaniel Gleicher.
