Background

President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev became president following the 2019 election, where he secured his first five-year term of office upon the vote. Had Tokayev chose to run once his term expired the in originally scheduled presidential elections for 2024, he would have been eligible by law to seek a reelection and possibly hold office until 2029.

Announcement

At the annual State of the Nation Address held on 1 September 2022, Tokayev announced the 2022 presidential elections to take place in autumn. [7] From there, Tokayev voiced his interest to run for reelection and proposed a constitutional amendment in changing the president's term of office to a once seven-year term that was planned to be enacted after the elections were initially held, which would have shorten his second term in office to 2027. [8] However, the Parliament of Kazakhstan after public controversy regarding fears of extending presidential time in office, implemented the changes to the law prior before the vote, thus granting the opportunity for Tokayev to serve seven years as president upon being reelected. [9] Tokayev then signed the ratified constitutional amendments into law. [10] After setting the date for the 2022 election by a presidential decree, Tokayev reiterated his commitment to run again and hinted that his election manifesto would outline "new initiatives aimed at achieving socio-economic progress". [11]

Nomination

Amidst receiving presidential nominations by a number of public associations and political parties, [12] Tokayev expressed his desire to be nominated from "a broad coalition of socio-political forces". [13] This led to the formation of the People's Coalition which included the pro-government parties of Amanat, Aq Jol Democratic Party, and People's Party of Kazakhstan and various public associations supporting Tokayev. [14] The People's Coalition held its first forum on 6 October 2022 that was attended by 2,000 representatives of political parties and more than 30 republican associations. [15] At the event, Tokayev's candidacy was endorsed by the coalition, where Tokayev gave speech in the seven principles in "governing the nation" that included: independence; foundation of the country; interests of the state; spiritual harmony; law and order; creativity; friendship, kindness and compassion. [16]

Registration

On 7 October 2022, Tokayev submitted his documents to the Central Election Commission (CEC) that included nominations from the republican public associations. [17] The CEC in the following day of 8 October ruled that Tokayev met necessary compliances and due to his incumbency, was exempted from undergoing the Kazakh state language exam process. [18] On 12 October 2022, Tokayev was officially registered by the CEC as candidate after submitting a total of 399,809 signatures in support. [19]

Älnur Iliaşev, a civil activist and lawyer, appealed to the Supreme Court of Kazakhstan and demanded the CEC to reject Tokayev's candidacy, in which he argued that Tokayev's decree in appointing snap elections violated the principles of voting rights and that the CEC deprived citizens' voting rights to what Iliaşev described the actions as being "illegal and unconstitutional". [20] Nevertheless, the Supreme Court following a hearing case ruled against Iliaşev's plea on 17 October 2022. [21]
