Egyptians vote in constitutional referendum http://www.aljazeera.com/news/middleeast/2014/01/egyptians-vote-constitutional-referendum-201411431750970367.html via DuckDuckGo for Android Polls are set to open in Egypt in a constitutional referendum, the first ballot since the military overthrew Islamist president Mohamed Morsi and an event likely to spawn a presidential bid by army chief General Abdel Fattah al-Sisi.Few doubt that Egyptians, who staged mass protests against Morsi's rule before his ouster, will turn out in big numbers on Tuesday and vote "yes" in the two-day referendum, a milestone in the army-backed government's political road map.Sisi deposed Morsi, Egypt's first freely elected head of state, in July.His Islamist foes see Sisi as the mastermind of a coup that kindled the worst internal strife in Egypt's modern history and brought back what critics call a police state.But many Egyptians are weary of the political upheaval that has gripped Egypt and shattered its economy since they rose up to topple autocrat Hosni Mubarak in 2011, and they view Sisi as a decisive figure who can reinstate stability.
