The Egyptian Election: A Quick Note

At around 18:35 on 22/6/12 I have not received a list of the Shafik campaigns list of complaints. Nor have I received an exhaustive list of the Morsi's.

However from the partial Morsi list I've sorted the complaints into four categories;

1. Technical breaches that would not have affected the result.

2. Breaches that could have affected the result but were mostly likely the result of genuine human error / unacceptable violence.

3. Deliberate attempts to rig the election which if isolated incidents would not affect the overall outcome.

4. Serious structural errors that could have had a significant effect on the outcome but could equally be caused by deliberate wrongdoing or genuine human error.

Obviously each of these individual complaints will have to be investigated so I won't be expecting a result until Sunday (24/6/12) at the absolute earliest. 18:51
