Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna leads Gachagua among DCP supporters in TIFA’s November 2026 survey.
Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna draws 34 per cent support among DCP supporters, ahead of Rigathi Gachagua’s 25 per cent.
Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna leads former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua among DCP supporters in a new TIFA presidential poll. The November 2026 survey puts Sifuna’s support at 34 per cent, compared with Gachagua’s 25 per cent.
The findings place Sifuna nine percentage points ahead among supporters of the Democracy for the Citizens Party. Respondents identified their preferred winner of the 2027 presidential election.
The result shows Sifuna attracting support beyond his Linda Mwananchi political base. Meanwhile, Gachagua is positioning himself as a leading opposition figure seeking to challenge President William Ruto.
TIFA presidential poll shows differing party preferences
Among Orange Democratic Movement supporters, however, Ruto leads Sifuna by 42 per cent to 33 per cent. That gives the president a nine-point advantage within this group.
Jubilee supporters, meanwhile, favour former Interior Cabinet Secretary Fred Matiang’i, who commands 57 per cent backing. However, TIFA describes that support as relatively weak compared with other party leaders’ backing within their respective parties.
Ruto also enjoys support from an overwhelming majority of United Democratic Alliance supporters. Sifuna, meanwhile, leads among Linda Mwananchi supporters, alongside his advantage over Gachagua among DCP supporters.
Wiper supporters predominantly favour their party leader, Kalonzo Musyoka. The survey therefore identifies different preferred presidential choices across the party support bases ahead of the 2027 election.
