Kenyan election officials were counting millions of ballots Friday in the country's closest-ever presidential race after an election praised as orderly and peaceful despite sporadic violence. Lines at polling stations stretched for miles in some areas. Diplomats have expressed concern that a narrow victory could lead to rioting. Each ballot is hand written and hand counted. Early results have Odinga ahead.
