Kazakhstan - November 2022

On 20 November, the Kazakh election commission reported President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev was re-elected with 81.31 per cent of the vote. President since 2019, Tokayev faces no tangible opposition in the country’s strictly controlled political and media environment. The OSCE election observation mission reported a peaceful and orderly election day, but that “important safeguards were disregarded and substantial procedural errors and omissions were observed.”
