Millicent Owuor will always be connected to the 2012 presidential election. On Wednesday morning, after President Obama's re-election, the 20-year-old southwest Kenya-native named her newborn twins Barack Obama and Mitt Romney. According to the BBC, Owuor gave birth close to Kogelo where President Obama's father was born. Just as she was preparing to give birth, the village was celebrating the election.

Apparently there were several babies born at the hospital named after Obama, but only Owuor chose to name a child after Romney. For the record, Barack is the one in the white and Mitt is the one in the blue. Their sibling rivalry is going to be out of this world.
