The first elections in the world in 2021 take place in Kazakhstan in a few days – and much is expected from them. The elections are for the Majilis, the lower chamber of the Kazakh Parliament consisting of 107 deputies who are elected for a five-year term (the upper house is the Senate of Kazakhstan, with 47 members).
The previous elections for the 107-seat Majilis were held in March 2016 and, currently, the Nur Otan party has a majority of 84 deputies in the Majilis, while the Ak Zhol and the Communist People’s party have 7 deputies each. In a departure from custom, the date falls at the end of the legislature’s five-year term.

The preparations for the parliamentary elections in Kazakhstan are in full swing. On 10 January 2021, Kazakhstan will elect the members of the “Mazhilis”, the lower-house of the Kazakh Parliament. The current members of the parliament were elected in 2016 for a five-year term. Of the 107 members, 98 are up for election. Another 9 members will be nominated by the Assembly of People of Kazakhstan – a national body that ensures the multi-ethnic participation in Kazakh politics and civil society.
