Cairo: Egypt’s National Elections Authority (NEA) on Saturday announced the final results of the 2025 House of Representatives elections, bringing to a close a parliamentary vote that spanned over more than three months, marking the longest electoral process in the nation’s history. NEA Chairman Judge Hazem Badawy stated that the elections lasted 99 days and resulted in the election of 568 members of parliament, completing the formation of the new lower house.
According to State Information Service Egypt, the announcement followed the conclusion of runoff elections in 27 electoral districts after courts annulled first-round results in those constituencies earlier in the process. The NEA reported that 49 seats were decided in the runoff round after the final ballot counts were reviewed, appeals were adjudicated, and votes cast by Egyptians abroad were added.
Badawy indicated that out of 69,891,913 registered voters nationwide, 22,657,211 participated in the elections, resulting in a turnout of 32.41 percent. Of the ballots cast, 21,150,656 were deemed valid, while 1,506,555 were invalid. Runoff voting took place in 27 of the 30 annulled districts, with polling for Egyptians abroad conducted on 31 December 2025 and 1 January 2026, and domestic voting held on 3 and 4 January.
The runoff races saw 98 candidates competing for 49 seats across 10 governorates. Badawy emphasized that the NEA reviewed complaints and appeals throughout the process and intervened in cases where violations could have affected the integrity of the vote. The elections were overseen by judicial bodies and secured by state institutions, including multiple ministries and domestic and international civil society organizations and media outlets.
Following the official announcement of the runoff results, the composition of the new House of Representatives is almost complete, pending a presidential decision to appoint 5 percent of members (28 MPs). The emerging parliamentary map reflects major political parties’ dominance alongside independent candidates, with increased opposition representation.
According to figures compiled by several news websites, the Nation’s Future Party (Mostaqbal Watan) secured 227 seats, making it the largest parliamentary bloc. The Homeland Defenders Party (Homat Al-Watan) ranked second with 87 seats, followed by the National Front Party with 65 seats, and the Republican People’s Party with 25 seats. Together, the four largest parties hold 403 seats.
Other parties such as the Egyptian Social Democratic Party, the Justice Party, and the Wafd Party secured a smaller number of seats, with independents winning a total of 103 seats. Women secured four seats through individual races and 142 seats through national lists, which means women’s representation exceeds 25 percent of the total membership of the House of Representatives, pending the final composition following presidential appointments.
