Video: Egypt presidential election: candidates cast ballots in historic run-off For those who preferred the secular centrists, leftists and moderate Islamists who lost in the first round, the two-man run-off leaves an unpalatable choice from the extremes. Some of Egypt's 50 million eligible voters say they will despoil their ballots rather than back Shafiq, a former air force commander, or Morsy of the Brotherhood, the clandestine enemy of army rule for six decades. But many others were determined to make their voice heard as queues formed early at some polling stations as they opened for the first of two days of voting. Reeling from a court order two days ago to dissolve a new parliament dominated by the Muslim Brotherhood, many question whether the wealthy generals who pushed aside their fellow officer Mubarak last year to appease the pro-democracy protests of the Arab Spring will honour a pledge to let civilians rule. With neither a parliament nor a new constitution in place to define the president's powers, voting on Saturday and Sunday will not settle the matter, leaving 82 million Egyptians, foreign investors and allies in the United States and Europe unsure what kind of state the most populous Arab nation will be. A result of the poll could be known as early Sunday night, after the second day's vote. Contains footage from Reuters and APTN
