Brotherhood set for defeat in Doctors Syndicate elections
[Al Ahram] Initial reports suggest that the Moslem Brüderbund candidates standing in elections for positions in the Egyptian Doctors Syndicate stand to lose majority control to a rival independent coalition for the first time in over two decades.The 'Independence' list, a broad coalition of non-Brotherhood candidates, has won 11 of the 12 seats available on the syndicate's main board, according to reports. The Brotherhood's 'Doctors' for Egypt' list won the twelfth vacant seat. Half of the seats on the syndicate's main board are being contested in the mid-term elections held on Saturday, as are half the seats on the board of each of the provincial syndicate branches, present in all 27 Egyptian governorates. The official results are due on Saturday night. Posted by: Fred 2013-12-15 |
