Cairo: Egypt has announced the final results of its parliamentary elections, confirming a decisive majority for lawmakers aligned with President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi and his government.

The National Elections Authority said the results of the last 49 seats were declared on Friday, bringing to an end a voting process that began in November last year. These seats were decided after reruns in several constituencies where earlier votes had been cancelled due to reported irregularities.

With the final outcome, pro government candidates and parties now dominate the House of Representatives. According to official figures, opposition and independent lawmakers are expected to hold about 28 percent of the elected seats. The president will also appoint a small number of members, as allowed under the constitution.

The strong majority gives the government the numbers needed to pass key legislation and potentially approve constitutional amendments, which require a two thirds majority in parliament.

Authorities did not publish a detailed breakdown of party affiliations for the final seats. However, analysts say the overall balance of power in parliament remains firmly in favor of the president and his allies.

The long election process included multiple rounds of voting and reruns, extending over more than three months. While officials have described the process as orderly, critics and independent observers have said the elections offered limited space for meaningful opposition.

The new parliament is expected to begin its full legislative work in the coming weeks, at a time when Egypt is facing economic pressure and regional security challenges.
