Ahmed Shafik, who served as Egyptian prime minister under Hosni Mubarak, will be announced as the winner of the country's presidential runoff election on Sunday evening, Egpytian daily Al-Ahram reported Friday, citing government sources.
Al-Ahram quoted a source in the current Egyptian government as saying Shafik will be declared victor with 50.7 percent of the vote.
Both Shafik and rival candidate Mohamed Morsy of the Muslim Brotherhood have previously declared themselves the winner of the runoff election.
The results of the election were originally scheduled to be announced on Thursday, but the announcement was delayed as Egypt's electoral commission investigated charges of fraud lodged by both sides.

Say hello to the new boss...
1,400 years of Islam creates a culture that is incompatible with democracy.
Madame Cankles made an inside deal with the military.
Not saying that's good or bad, just saying the rest is theater. From the cheap seats.
I'm sure the few HATE-ROMNEY and MORMONS Freeps will be happy to let us know it would make no difference, cuz they is "peas in a pod" so we might just as well ALL stay home come Nov.
RIGHT?

The Muslim Brotherhood swore up and down that it wouldnt seek the Egyptian presidency as proof of its desire for a pluralistic society. At the last minute, the Brotherhood nominated Khairat el-Shater. According to the New York Times, State Department officials actually look at this as a good thing that could stop the more puritanical Salafists from winning.
State Department officials said they were untroubled and even optimistic about the Brotherhoods reversal of its pledge not to seek the presidency, the Times reports. Shater has had extensive contact with U.S. officials and has convinced them that hes not to be feared. Apparently, these U.S. officials have forgotten about (or never were informed of) the Muslim Brotherhoods ideology and history.
In November, a Brotherhood spokesman stated without equivocation, The Sharia, the Muslim legal framework, must be the foundation for everything. On November 24, senior Brotherhood leaders publicly preached violent jihad, and the International Union of Muslim Scholars, a Brotherhood entity, declared that it is time to revive the duty of jihad in all its forms. One top leader, Mohamad Katatni, predicts that the revolution in Egypt would lead to the elimination of the state of Israel.
Director of National Intelligence James CRAPPER Clapper said in January that Al-Qaeda probably will find it difficult to compete for local support with groups like the Muslim Brotherhood and that non-violent, pro-democracy demonstrations challenge Al-Qaedas violent jihadist ideology and might yield increased political power for secular or moderate Islamist parties.

James CRAPPER Clapper also said the muslim brotherhood was a secular organization. What a sad joke he is.

Civil war is inevitable. The price of food is going up, partly in response to the price of oil (which is needed for everything from making pesticides to powering tractors) and partly from increased demand from a growing population.
The Islamic culture is economically unproductive. What happens to people who produce less than what it costs to feed them, after the charity of the West has been exhausted?
With any luck, they’ll help to exterminate each other and rid the world of those murderous, subhuman muzzie filth.
Look for a civil war to erupt.

If you are used to the government publishing fake election results, you're not going to believe the official results even if for a change they are accurate.
Wow, didn’t see this coming. This should be interesting.
