With the Council of Ministers announcing its approval of the decree calling for the eighteenth parliamentary elections in the history of Kuwait, which were set for the 5th of December, 2020 through the (one vote), electoral system, many questions come to my mind:
- What are the women's chances in this parliament?
- What are the reasons behind the low success rate of women in being elected for parliament?
- Is this due to the male and female voters or the female candidates themselves?
- What are the difficulties and challenges faced by women candidates?
- What are the characteristics that the female candidate must possess in order to bring her closer to winning a seat in parliament?
