A parliamentary election is underway, expected to increase the president's control. President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev has been in office since 2019, previously working as a diplomat and at the United Nations. The election is part of a constitutional overhaul initiated by Tokayev, which includes merging the two chambers of parliament into one.

The outcome is anticipated to favor the pro-presidential party, with several smaller parties also expected to enter parliament. This election marks the first vote to a new single-chamber parliament. Further details about the election and its expected outcome are available from the source.
