Egypt will hold a presidential election on 26 and 27 May 2014. Only two candidates were submitted to the Supreme Election Committee, which obviates the need for a runoff.
Background
Presidential elections were set after the 2013 Egyptian coup d'état and June 2013 Egyptian protests, in which President Mohamed Morsi was overthrown, and following the January 2014 Egyptian constitutional referendum. The interim president Adly Mansour announced on 26 January 2014 that the presidential election will be held before the parliamentary election. A five-member commission will monitor the election. The deadline for proposals regarding the elections law was 9 February. The presidential elections law was issued by the president on 8 March.
Regulations
Candidates were able to apply for nomination between 31 March-20 April 2014. The final list of candidates approved by the the Supreme Election Committee was announced on 2 May. Candidates are allowed to spend a maximum of LE20 million for campaigning The term of the presidential winner will begin the day the final results are announced, which will be 5 June, as there are only two running candidates.

Candidates
Hamdeen Sabahi, a former presidential candidate in the 2012 presidential election, officially announced his presidential bid on 8 February 2014. However, the Sabahi campaign has criticized the presidential elections law promulgated by the interim government, deeming its characteristics troubling for the transparency and fairness of the election. The pro-Sabahi Revolution's Candidate campaign has also expressed reservations about the nature of the presidential elections law, suggesting that the provision establishing inviolability for the decisions of the Supreme Electoral Committee raises doubts about the integrity of the election process and could potentially force a reassessment of the Sabahi candidacy. On 14 March, Hamdeen Sabahi's presidential campaign announced that Sabahi has decided to continue his candidacy in the presidential election, despite the perceived unconstitutionality of the presidential elections law. Sabahi has taken the medical tests needed to run for presidential office. Sabahi acquired 31,555 endorsements.
Abdel Fattah el-Sisi confirmed on 26 March that he will run for president. Sisi submitted 188,930 endorsements (though 500,000 were collected) and is the first candidate to submit all required documentation.
Sisi and Sabahi were announced as the official candidates by the Presidential Election Commission on 2 May 2014.
Non-candidates
The Nour Party will not nominate anyone for the presidency. The New Wafd Party stated on 27 January 2014 that it will not nominate anyone. The current president, Adly Mansour, stated in November 2013 that he will not run. Amr Moussa, who finished fifth in the 2012 presidential election, has stated that he will not run for the presidency. Abdel Moneim Aboul Fotouh, who finished fourth in the 2012 election, announced on 9 February 2014 that he will not run. The Salafist Front has not decided on a stance to take towards the elections. On 13 March, Lieutenant General Sami Anan announced he will not run for president. Khaled Ali, a labor lawyer and former presidential candidate, withdrew his candidacy on 16 March after the passage of the presidential elections law, describing the election as a "farce" while also urging el-Sisi not to run and the army to stay out of politics. Ahmed Shafiq, who finished second in the 2012 presidential election, losing to Mohamed Morsi, announced on 20 March that he will not run for president. Murad Muwafi, who is the former director of Egyptian General Intelligence, announced on 30 March that he would not run for president. Lawyer Mortada Mansour announced on 6 April that he would run for president, though on 19 April, he announced his withdrawal from the election and directed his support toward Sisi. News presenter Bothaina Kamel announced on 12 April that she would run, but she couldn't collect the required endorsements to run. A movement called Taharor had launched, in coordination with the Constitution Party and with the April 6 movement, a nationwide campaign to collect 50,000 signatures in favor of Mohammed ElBaradei running for the presidency. Another campaign, called Authorize El Baradei, also started in order to gain endorsements to convince ElBaradei to run for the presidency. However, ElBaradei was ultimately not a presidential candidate.
Support and opposition
A movement called Finish Your Favor has claimed to have collected 26 million signatures asking el-Sisi to run for president. The Revolutionary Forces Bloc will back el-Sisi for president. Tamarod has supported el-Sisi as has the Arab Democratic Nasserist Party and the Misr Balady front. The Moderate Front, which is a group made up of former jihadis, ex-members of the Muslim Brotherhood and ex-al-Gama'a al-Islamiyya members, has supported el-Sisi. The New Wafd Party announced their support for Sisi on 7 April. The Free Egyptians Party announced on 27 April 2014 that it would back el-Sisi. The Nour Party announced their support for Sisi on 3 May. The Tagammu Party and Conference Party announced on 4 May 2014 that they would back el-Sisi for president. Moussa has stated that el-Sisi is the most qualified candidate for the presidency. Ex-President Hosni Mubarak has stated in a phone interview that Egyptians should back Sisi, though Mubarak's lawyer has disputed the idea that Mubarak has commented about Sisi's candidacy. In that same interview, Mubarak criticized Sabahi, claiming that he is "not fit" to be president. Anwar Sadat and Saad el-Shazly's families also backed el-Sisi. The Egyptian Patriotic Movement announced on 13 May that it would support Sisi. The Strong Egypt Party, headed by Aboul Fotouh, has opposed el-Sisi's candidacy. Sabahi has criticized the possibility of having someone with a military background become the next president, arguing that such an outcome would run counter to the goals of the Egyptian revolution. He also has expressed doubt about Sisi's commitment to democracy, has argued that the Field Marshal bears a measure of direct and indirect responsibility for the human rights violations carried out during the period of the interim government, and has denounced what he deems to be the interim government's hostility toward the goals of the revolution. The Road of the Revolution Front, the Constitution Party, both wings of the April 6 Movement and the Anti-Coup Alliance have opposed Sisi's election bid. The April 6 movement has opposed Sisi's candidacy on the grounds that it would further exacerbate polarization and division. A social media campaign against Sisi's candidacy has arisen. Shortly after Sisi's announcement to run for the presidential elections, some social media users in Egypt and the Arab world responded to Al-Sisi's presidential bid announcement with a viral hashtag ("vote for the pimp") that swept Twitter, Facebook, and other social media platforms. The Revolutionary Socialists have issued a statement delineating their position toward the election which criticized state institutions supporting Sisi, described Sisi as the "leader of the counter-revolution," and vowed to "expose el-Sisi's illusions and to destroy the idol which Mubarak's state is erecting as it rebuilds itself."
Two co-founders of Tamarod (Hassan Shahin and Mohamed Abel Aziz) have been suspended from the organization after announcing their support for Hamdeen Sabahi in his presidential bid. Other leading Tamarod members, numbering around 50, have issued a statement expressing support for Sabahi. The Revolution's Candidate campaign has begun to promote Sabahi following his confirmation that he will run in the election. The Popular Current has officially supported Sabahi for president, The Constitution Party has announced its official support for Sabahi after polling its members over potential positions to take toward the election. The Socialist Popular Alliance Party announced on 25 April 2014 that it will support Sabahi. The Dignity Party previously stated that it will support Sabahi. The Revolutionary Socialists announced on 27 April that they will support Sabahi. The Justice Party declared its support for Sabahi on 28 April. The Brotherhood Without Violence movement has also backed Sabahi. The Freedom Egypt Party has announced its support for Sabahi.
The Kefaya Movement will not back a candidate. After holding an internal vote over the question of what position to take toward the presidential election, the Egyptian Social Democratic Party has decided not to officially back any candidate. The April 6 Democratic Front has declared that it will let members decide whether to support Sabahi or boycott the election.
Conduct and controversies
The Socialist Popular Alliance Party and the Revolutionary Socialists have opposed the use of state media for the promotion of el-Sisi as a candidate. The Socialist Popular Alliance also has demanded "fair, transparent, credible elections" and argued that allowing the election to turn into a referendum over a single candidate would mean the establishment of a totalitarian state. Ahmed Douma, an activist and member of the Popular Current presently imprisoned for allegedly violating an anti-protest law, has called on Hamdeen Sabahi to withdraw his candidacy unless the protest law is annulled and prisoners whose incarceration is justified by this law or otherwise associated with its application are freed. Sabahi and his campaign have issued complaints of state bias, assaults and arbitrary arrests against pro-Sabahi campaigners, and destruction of candidate endorsement documents. Sabahi has also accused Sisi's campaign of bribing citizens to garner endorsements, as well as having orchestrated prepaid arrangements to acquire endorsements. The Presidential Elections Committee has stated that Sabahi broke election rules by announcing his campaign prematurely and that it will investigate the matter.
Boycotts
Ayman Nour and his Ghad El-Thawra Party announced its boycott 9 February. The National Alliance to Support Legitimacy announced on 27 April 2014 that it will boycott the vote. The April 6 movement has announced that it will boycott the vote, describing the election as a "farce." The Strong Egypt Party re-affirmed that it would boycott the vote on 14 May.
Opinion polls
A September 2013 Zogby Research Services opinion poll found that 46% of Egyptians expressed "confidence" in Abdel Fattah El Sisi while 52% were "not confident" in the general. The same poll showed 44% exhibiting "confidence" in former president Mohammed Morsi and 55% as being "not confident" about the deposed leader. The Zogby poll reported 39% as "confident" in interim president Adly Mansour while 58% were "not confident" in him. A poll conducted by Baseera in February 2014 indicated that 51% of those polled would vote for el-Sisi, while 45% are undecided about who to vote for and 1% plan to cast their vote for Sabahi. 2,062 people were polled by the Egyptian Center for Public Opinion Research (Baseera) in all of the governorates of Egypt from 27 February 2014 to 4 March 2014 via mobile and landline calling. Another poll, also conducted by Baseera, indicated that 39% would vote for El-Sisi, while 59% are undecided and 1% indicated that they would vote for Sabahi. The poll was conducted by contacting 2,034 people 18 and older who were contacted through land line and mobile phones throughout all of Egypt's governorates from 24 March until 26 March. Another poll taken from 28 April until 2 May indicated that 72% supported Sisi, while 2% support Sabahi. A poll by the Ibn Khaldun Center for Development Studies found that 84 % of those who responded would support Sisi, while 16 would support Sabahi. Another poll by Baseera conducted from 10 May to 11 May that polled 2,000 people found that 75% have said that they will vote for Sisi, while 2% will vote for Sabahi and 15% are undecided. 87% of people who responded said that they will vote.
Opinion polls in Egypt are, however, unreliable, having failed to predict the outcome of the 2012 presidential elections.
