Egypt Announces Presidential Election Date, President Sisi Expected To Be Re-Elected

Egypt’s election authority on Monday, has said the Country’s presidential election will hold on the 10TH till 12TH of December 2023.

There is also an expectation that the Country’s President, Abdel Fattah al-Sisi would win a reelection despite an economic crisis including record inflation and foreign currency shortages.

The possibility of the 68-year-old President to have a rerun is due to the constitutional amendments in 2019 that also extended the length of presidential terms to six years from four, opening the way for him to stay in office until at least 2030.

The election authority further said that the election results are expected to be announced on Dec. 18 and, in the event of a run off round, final results should be announced on Jan 16 at the latest, the election authority said.

Though Sisi has not formally announced his candidacy, pro-government parties have started a campaign including billboards around Cairo backing his reelection.

Sisi became president in 2014, the year after he led the overthrow of democratically elected Mohamed Mursi of the Muslim Brotherhood, following protests against Mursi’s rule.

Four other candidates have expressed an intention to run this time, including the most prominent who is  a former member of parliament, Ahmed Eltantawy, who says security services have arrested some of his associates and blocked him from holding election events. Officials have not responded to his allegations.
