An opinion poll by research firm Infotrak has ranked Makueni Senator Mutula Kilonzo Jr as the best performing senator in the country.
The survey conducted between November 2019 and January 2020 indicates that the second term Senator scored 66.4 percent.

The poll ranked the senators based on their performance both in the House and in their counties. The average quota sample was 800.
