# NEA declares Sisi winner with 89.6 percent; no serious challenger on the ballot

Date: 2023

## The fact

The Official Gazette published NEA Decision 39 of 2023. Serious challengers did not reach the ballot. This page does not invent a unique fraud integer.

10–12 December poll; 18 December NEA declaration. Stored as one 18 December 2023 Fact. Keep NEA declares Sisi winner with 89.6 percent; no serious challenger on the ballot on 2023-12-18 separate from neighbouring coup, Rab’a, referendum, and 2023-return instruments.

## Significance

The path is electoral integrity: a completed 89.6 percent certification against no serious challenger.

## What is established and what is not

Established: NEA declared 39,702,451 votes (89.6 percent) and 66.8 percent turnout on 18 December 2023.

What would change the picture: a contradictory original with a different date or name, a later repeal, a court that vacated the instrument, or a measured series that can be argued, with lag and alternatives, as a consequence of this instrument rather than of later institutions.

The date is the date of this instrument, not a licence to back-date every later harm or benefit.

NEA tabulated. Sharing tabulation is not a reason to drop the certification.. A later repeal, court stay, or successor order would be a different Fact with a different date. That pair identifies NEA declares Sisi winner with 89.6 percent; no serious challenger on the ballot, not a later speech about NEA declares Sisi winner with 89.6 percent; no serious challenger on the ballot.

Co-authors and later implementers named in Context remain on the file. NEA declares Sisi winner with 89.6 percent; no serious challenger on the ballot on 2023-12-18 is not a licence to treat every later Cairo 24 (recording the Official Gazette) communique as this same act. If a later repeal, stay, or successor instrument exists, it needs its own date and its own row. This dossier refuses to average NEA declares Sisi winner with 89.6 percent; no serious challenger on the ballot into a personality. The contribution described on this Person row is limited to He ran and was certified. NEA tabulated. Sharing tabulation is not a reason to drop the certification. That limit is the alternative to treating office-holding as authorship of every later series.
