Jordan elects a
legislature on the national level. The '
National Assembly' (''Majlis al-Umma'') has two
chambers. The '
Chamber of Deputies' (''Majlis al-Nuwaab'') has 110 members, 104 elected for a four-year term in single-seat
constituencies and 6 female members by a special electoral college. Of the 110 seats, Christians are reserved 9 seats and Chechens/Circassians are reserved 3. The '
Assembly of Senators' (''Majlis al-Aayan'') has 40 members appointed by the king. Jordan has
political parties, but they don't play a significant role, as supporters of the king dominate both chambers.
