Egyptians vote in presidential election

AKIPRESS.COM - Egyptians have begun three days of voting to elect a new president, in an election expected to produce a landslide for the incumbent, BBCreported.

There are few doubts that President Abdul Fattah al-Sisi will win a second term after most challengers withdrew.

The only other candidate is the little-known centrist politician Moussa Mostafa Moussa.

But Mr Moussa is known to be a supporter of the president, and has said he supports Mr Sisi's re-election.
