Cairo: Egypt's election committee will announce on Monday first round results of the presidential poll, an official said, after unofficial counts showed it would go to a run-off between the Muslim Brotherhood's candidate and the last prime minister of Hosni Mubarak.
Four candidates have complained about the voting, including Hamdeen Sabahy, the leftist candidate shown in third place.
If no candidate wins more than 50 per cent of the vote, a run-off is held between the top two.
Asked if there would be a run-off, he said: "That would be part of the result announcement we will make today."
