Egypt election result delayed

Egypt's election authority today said it will delay results of the presidential election as it needed more time to examine complaints, compounding confusion and uncertainty after both candidates declared victory.

The results was orginally scheduled to be announced tomorrow, but will now be deferred with the election commission saying it had roughly 400 appeals filed by both presidential campaigns before it.

The Supreme Presidential Elections Commission (SPEC) said it needs "more time" to examine appeals filed by presidential contenders' respective campaigns.
