Egypt’s President Abdul Fattah al-Sisi has won a third six-year term with 89.6% of the vote, the electoral commission has announced.
The former army chief beat three low-profile candidates, with the runner-up securing only 4.5%.
Leading opposition candidate Ahmed Tantawy had pulled out months before last week’s poll, claiming intimidation and violence against his campaign camp.
Egypt’s faltering economy and the war in Gaza were key electoral issues.
Mr Sisi, who is 69, first became president in 2014, a year after he had led the military’s overthrow of his Islamist predecessor Mohammed Morsi.
Mr Sisi won again in 2018. The victory in the latest election means he will be in power until 2030, when he is barred by the constitution from running again.
Under his leadership, huge sums of money have been spent on big infrastructure projects.
