Egyptians have voted for a second day in a parliamentary election that Islamists hope will sweep them closer to power, even though the army generals who took over from Hosni Mubarak have yet to step aside.

A member of the ruling military council, General Ismail Atman, says he expected the turnout in the first stage of Egypt’s parliamentary election to exceed 70 per cent.
“There is no actual or definitive estimate, but I assure you that, until now, it will go above 70 percent,” he told Al Jazeera television.

“I hope it will reach more than 80 percent by the end of the day.”

Les Campbell, a spokesman for the Washington-based National Democratic Institute, one of many groups monitoring the election, says it was “a fair guess” that turnout would exceed 50 per cent.
In one school-turned-polling station in Cairo, women in Islamic headscarves and others in Western clothes queued with their children and grandchildren to vote, with banners overhead and posters of candidates on walls.

Soldiers welcomed them and judges kept a good-natured eye on proceedings.
