Kenya is divided into 210 constituencies all of which elect a representative to the national assembly. The members of parliament are democratically selected by ballot through the single winner voting system. Parliament however, provides for the nomination of 12 more members based on party strength. This brings the number of members of parliament to 222. Both parliamentary and civic representatives are elected during general elections taking place every five years. Although the current constitution is silent on the nomination of women to these positions, the 10th parliament has five female nominated members of parliament.

The harmonized draft constitution has made provisions for more women to be incorporated in the legislative process in various capacities.
