General elections were held in Kenya on 8 November 1979. At the time, the country was a de facto one-party state with the Kenya African National Union being the sole party to participate in the election. A total of 742 KANU candidates stood for the 158 National Assembly seats, with more than half of the incumbents (including seven ministers) defeated. Voter turnout was 67.3%. Although the post of President of Kenya was due to be elected at the same time as the National Assembly, Daniel arap Moi was the sole candidate and was automatically elected without a vote being held. Following the elections, a further 12 members were appointed by President Moi.

  • Всеобщие выборы в Кении прошли 8 ноября 1979 года. В это время в Кении была установлена де-факто однопартийная система с Национальным союзом африканцев Кении, бывшей единственной партией, которая могла участвовала в выборах. На 158 мест Национальной ассамблеи претендовало 742 кандидатов, представлявших единственную существовавшую партию. В результате более 50 % депутатов предыдущего парламента, включая семь министров правительства, не были переизбраны. Явка избирателей составила 67,3 %. Хотя президент Кении должен был быть избран в то же время, что и Национальная ассамблея, единственным кандидатом был президент Дэниэл арап Мои, который в результате был избран автоматически без проведения формального голосования, как и на предыдущих выборах. После выборов президент Кениата назначил ещё 12 членов. (ru)
