2007 Egyptian Shura Council election

There were 587 candidates competing for the 88 seats in 24 provinces. The main parties running were the National Democratic Party (109 candidates) and the outlawed Muslim Brotherhood (whose 19 candidates were standing as independents, President Mubarak having had failed in an attempt to disqualify 17 of them). The elections were being boycotted by the New Wafd Party and the Nasserist Party.[1]

Violence on election day led to the death of a supporter of an independent candidate in Sharqia province after fighting with supporters of the NDP.[1]

Egyptian media reported that 11 of the 88 seats were won uncontested by the National Democratic Party.[1] In total, the NDP won 70 seats in the first round of the election, while one seat went to the National Progressive Unionist Party (commonly known as "Tagammu"). Voter turnout was reportedly 23%.[2] The NDP won all 17 seats determined in the second round.
