Kazakhstan elects on national level a head of state - the president - and a legislature. The president is elected for a seven year term by the people. The Parliament (Parlamenti) has two chambers. The Assembly (Mazhilis) has 77 seats, elected for a four year term, 67 in single seat constituencies and 10 by proportional representation The Senate has 47 members, 40 members elected for a six year term in double-seat constituencies by the local assemblies, half renewed every two years, and 7 presidential appointees. In addition, ex-presidents are ex-officio life senators. Kazakhstan is a one party dominant state in the way that only supporters of a head of state - the president - can share power. Opposition parties are allowed, but are widely considered to have no real chance of gaining power.
