Cairo: The official results of Egypt's presidential election will be
announced Sunday at 5 p.m. (1300 GMT), state TV reported Saturday.
The results of the June 16-17 run-off vote were originally planned
to be released Thursday, but the Supreme Elections Commission said
it needed more time to examine some 400 reports of electoral
violations received by the commission.
The two candidates, the Muslim Brotherhood's Mohammed Mursi and
Ahmed Shafiq, who served as prime minister under former president
Hosni Mubarak, have both claimed victory.
