The Sudanese community in Egypt has participated in the current Sudanese elections yesterday in the Sudanese embassy , I hope they preserve this right ,it is very expensive one.
Why can't Egyptians abroad vote in their embassies where as Sudanese can !!??

Perhaps because our elections are a joke? why make it an expensive one? ^^
ReplyDeleteSudanese expatriots can only vote for the office of President.
ReplyDeleteThe Sudanese in Sudan vote for (at least):
The President
The Governor of their State
The representative of their local constituency
The representative they would like to represent them in the federal parliament
The party they would like to represent them in the national parliament
The party they would like to represent them in the federal parliament
Members of parliament from a women's quota list - which comprises 25% of the national parliament.
For all the 'strong, organic, special' relations Sudan has with Egypt - the numbers of Sudanese expatriots in Egypt who registered to vote are a little over 5000 !
This is miniscule when compared to the number of Sudanese expatriots in the Gulf who have registered to vote...
@Hassan, thank you :)
