Call Of Egypt
The Call of Egypt ( ar-at, نداء مصر, Nidaa Masr) is an electoral alliance in Egypt that competed in the 2015 Egyptian parliamentary election. The coalition has accused the Nour Party of cooperating with NDP-era tycoon Ahmed Ezz in the run up to the 2015 Egyptian parliamentary election, though the Nour Party has denied the claim. The Revolutionary Guards Party, after initially joining the alliance in February 2015, decided to run for the election on its own. The coalition is seen as being supportive of current president Abdel Fattah el-Sisi.

2011–12 Egyptian Parliamentary Election
Parliamentary elections were held in Egypt from 28 November 2011 to 11 January 2012, following the revolution that ousted President Hosni Mubarak, after which the Supreme Council of the Armed Forces (SCAF) dissolved Parliament. However the dissolution was ruled unconstitutional and Parliament was reinstated. Originally, the elections had been scheduled to be held in September 2011, but were postponed amid concerns that established parties would gain undue advantage. The elections were proclaimed the first honest national elections of any sort held in Egypt since the overthrow of the monarchy in 1952. However, there were also complaints of irregularities and fraud. The main focus of the newly elected Parliament was to be the selection of the members of a Constituent Assembly. Background In late 2010, a parliamentary election was held, though it was followed by controversy and repression as well as accusations of fraud. Following similar events in Tunisia during the Arab Sprin ...
