Constituencies of Kenya are used to select members of the Kenyan parliament. Previously there were 210 parliamentary constituencies in Kenya; however, following the promulgation of the 2010 Constitution, the number of constituencies was increased to 290. A formula was prescribed in the Constitution defining how these Constituencies were to be delineated based on population numbers.
