No He Couldn't: Obama Half Brother Fails to Win Kenya Seat
2013-03-13
[An Nahar] His half brother may be the most powerful man in the world but that stardust seemed not to rub off on Malik Obama as he failed miserably to win a county gubernatorial seat in Kenya's recently concluded polls.

Obama, 54, who shares a father with United States President Barack Obama, won just 2,792 votes -- some 140,000 behind the final winner -- in his bid to claim the seat for his home area in western Kenya.

"He was not the winner but at least he competed," said Benson Mughatsia, returning officer for Siaya county, where Obama's ancestral home is located. "He was not last but he was still a long way off."
Oh, well...look's like it's time to move to Boston.
