Two Key Parties Win HUGE in Egypt Election

A few days ago their were the Egyptian election's in its final day. However, there happened to be two Islamist parties that won roughly 70 percent of the seats for the lower house of parliament for the Egyptian election. The Justice Party and The Muslim Brotherhood's Freedom combine won 235 seats of the 498 assembly elected members. The other 30 percent is controlled by the Al Nour party which controls 121 seats of the 498 elected members. However, 10 other people will be chosen by the country's military ruler. This happens to be the first elected body since the ouster of the unjust former President Hosni Murbarak who is being tried for the death penalty. Durning last week Egypt's top political parties agreed to nominate Mohamed Katatni a member of the Muslim Brotherhood for speaker, which happens to be the first time in multiple decades that an Islamist would hold this post. The full parliment however, must appoint a 100 memeber panel that will write a new whole new consitution for Egypt. The presidential elections are going to be in June. This will be a good change for Eygpt because Military Leaders have been in charge of the government since the Burburak downfall. We will see how this plays out for the race to become the Egyptian president.
