Egypt election: How will you vote?

People in Egypt will go to the polls on 26 May to vote for a new president.

The country has been in turmoil since former President Hosni Mubarak's three decades of one-man rule was ended in the uprising of 2011.

There are two candidates standing in the election - former head of Egypt's armed forces, Abdul Fattah al-Sisi, and Hamdeen Sabahi a prominent left-wing politician and leader of the Egyptian Popular Current movement.

Here, Egyptians have been sharing their views with the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ about the forthcoming polls.
