埃及人开始参加议会第二轮选举的投票。第一轮投票的结果被伊斯兰教主义者主导。
星期三开始的第二轮投票已在九个地区展开，包括阿斯旺、贝尼苏俄发、吉萨、伊斯梅利亚，苏伊士和索哈杰。
投票将继续到星期四，决定议会下院498名议员的席位。涵盖其余九个省的第三轮选举将在明年1月初进行。
这次议会选举是埃及人民起义推翻前总统穆巴拉克统治后的首次选举。
议会权力较小的上院的选举将在明年1月底开始，于3月结束。之后，议会将撰写一部新宪法。
Egyptians have begun voting in the second round of parliamentary elections, following a first round that was dominated by Islamist parties.
Polls opened in nine areas Wednesday, including Aswan, Beni Suef, Giza, Ismailia, Suez and Sohag.
Voting will continue Thursday for the seats in the 498-member lower house of parliament. A third round of elections covering the remaining nine provinces will take place in early January.
The parliamentary elections are Egypt's first since a popular uprising ousted former President Hosni Mubarak.
Elections for parliament's less powerful upper house will begin in late January and finish in March, after which the assembly will write a new constitution.
