  ABSTRACT: This paper discusses the effects of public opinion on multi-track diplomacy election monitors’ critical assessment of Kenya’s presidential elections with reference to such elections held from the year 2007 to the year 2017. The study was conducted in Nairobi between July and October 2020 using questionnaires among voters, focus groups discussions and key informant interviews among state and non-state actors in the political system. It was found that it was believed by the majority of respondents that multi-track diplomacy actors that monitored Kenya’s presidential elections were influenced by public opinion thereby affecting their critical assessment of the outcomes of the elections, putting the credibility of their statements, reports and verdicts insofar as their role in promoting credible elections by preventing, detecting and deterring election fraud, to question.
