STORYLINE:
Polls opened Tuesday in Kenya's unusual presidential election, where a longtime opposition leader is backed by the outgoing president.
The top candidates are Raila Odinga, a democracy campaigner who has vied for the presidency for a quarter-century, and 55-year-old Deputy President William Ruto, who has stressed his journey from a humble childhood to appeal to millions of struggling Kenyans long accustomed to political dynasties.
Outgoing President Uhuru Kenyatta, the son of Kenya’s first president, cut across the usual ethnic lines and angered Ruto by backing longtime rival Odinga after their bitter 2017 election contest.
The election is considered close, and East Africa's economic hub could see a presidential runoff for the first time.
