Graffiti on a trash bin shows face of Egyptian presidential candidate and ex-army chief, Abdel Fattah al-Sisi, with the Arabic words that read “Elect the Pimp” in the village of Kirdassa, a hot bed for Islamists, southeast of Cairo on May 26, 2014. Egyptians voted for a new president in an election expected to sweep to power the ex-army chief, Abdel Fattah al-Sisi, who overthrew the country’s first democratically-elected leader and crushed his Islamist movement.
