Egyptians vote in run-off poll

Egyptians return to the polls to cast their ballots in run-off parliamentary elections.
Polls opened Monday morning in nine provinces, where voters will choose between 52 individual candidates who will occupy a third of the 498 seats in the lower house once two more rounds of the complicated voting process end in January.
The run-offs will pit 24 members of the ultra-conservative Islamist al-Nour Party against the more moderate Muslim Brotherhood.
In Cairo's working-class neighbourhood of Shubra, the lines began early in the morning.
One voter is optimistic about the vote.

"It's very good, the process is good and in the interests of the country and hopefully we will see a good result."
Polling stations will close at 7pm local time.
