Landslide election in Kazakhstan

The election of the president in Kazakhstan was characterized by some things this year, especially record setting figures.

One of the interesting things to note is that the rating of N. Nazarbayev is constantly growing which is proved by the elections results of the previous years.

Thus, the President won at the election of 1999 with 79.79% votes cast for his candidature. In 2005, the number grew to 91%, then in 2011, it was 95.55% already.

The other thing to note was the unprecedentedly high voting turnout.

The election is described as open, democratic and transparent. There were no serious violations during the electing process.

Representatives of international organizations and observation missions positively characterized the election campaign in Kazakhstan. Besides, it was noted that holding of the presidential elections in Kazakhstan meets all the European standards.

The growth dynamics of the President's rating means the high level of people's support of N. Nazarbayev's work and initiatives. Thanks to that support N. Nazarbayev was able to register a landslide at the election once again.
