Background[edit]
Following the constitutional amendments in 2018, all local elections were made to be elected through party-list proportional representation.
On 22 October 2020, elections to the Akmola Regional Mäslihat were scheduled to be held on 10 January 2021, the same date as the local and Mazhilis elections. The Nur Otan party held a conference on 17 November 2020 where the delegates approved party-list of 58 candidates as well as the election program in improving lives of the Akmola citizens.[1][2] By 11 December 2020, the Akmola Election Commission registered in total of 72 candidates from 4 parties except for People's Party of Kazakhstan (QHP) which refused to contest seats in the regional mäslihat.[3]
