Since the ousting of Hosni Mubarak, the Egyptian government has been in control by the new military. Many citizens are upset about this and wanted the military out of office. Due to this the citizens want the military to step down as the governing body, and choose a new president. This is why the military has proposed Egypt performs an election for a new president.
So far with all of the elections the Islamist Party is speculated to have seventy percent of the vote in the election so far. So it seems like Islamic parties will play a leading role in the next phase during the transition towards democracy. 62 percent of voters turned up to vote, which was roughly 8.4 million.
