Electoral system
Out of the 50 members of the Senate of Kazakhstan, 40 are indirectly elected for six years by delegates from the 17 provinces and three national cities. They're not elected all at once : twenty are elected every three years, one per 17 province and 3 city (Almaty, Astana, and Shymkent).[2] Senators represent every region and city.[3] The remaining 10 are nominated by the president, among which half on the proposal of the People's Assembly.[4]
Candidates must receive more than 50% of the votes cast to win a seat.[5]
Results
Fifty-five candidates ran in the election.
All twenty seats were elected in the first round, rendering a second round unnecessary. Two women were elected.[5]
