Street battles rock Egypt vote

Stone-throwing supporters of rival candidates have clashed outside a polling station in Alexandria during parliamentary elections in Egypt on Sunday.

The violence came as many members of the Muslim Brotherhood, the country's largest opposition group, accused the ruling party of vote rigging and intimidation.

Al Jazeera's Jacky Rowland reports from Alexandria, a Brotherhood stronghold.

[hanig1]

Someone forgot to disable adding comments here lol.Anyway ,Egypt is a corrupt dictatorship and the people have no power.Only the Family of Pharaoh Mubarak,the Military Generals,and a few private citizen multimillionaires have any say in what happens in Egypt.In over 6 thousand years,Egypt have never had a democratically elected leader.

Islam is wrong and it will be delt with when The Christ returns. Any religious that forces itself on a people is satanic. God gave humans free will to decide for themselves the way they should go. God chooses whom He wills. Islam is of Satan !!! Religious liers, thieves and murderers in the name of God !!!!! Time will tell.

Good reporting AlJazeera and Jackie Rowland. At the time, I and I think 99% of people in the US has no idea about these elections. A few months later we were surprised at the uprising.

As usual those like Mubarak who talk about serving their country actually mean linning their own pockets. How could a man who claims to love his country mistreat it in this way. Clearly even if those in the counter demonstration like Mubarak, and not just his cash, then enough people don't to necessitate him going now and quickly.
