Egypt and the distrust in the democracy

It is totally natural that the egyptians don't trust in these new democratic procedures to elect the next president. After so many years under Mubarak's command, it takes some time and it is quite acceptable the new popular movements which are taking place now in the country to argüe it.

Three losing candidates from the first round of Egypt’s presidential election say there were widespread irregularities in last month’s vote.

I can't say anything about second round's candidates (although the fact that, in my opinion, it's kind of strange to have Mubarak's supporters in it), but maybe I could ask if is legal or lawful trying to cancel the first round results just to investigate this. We had some suspicions about the procedures before, but it was removed in the first moments of the elections.

The worst thing which could happen now in Egypt is to extend more this democratic transition with no formed government. Considering that all candidates's appeals were refused by the Court, it's really difficult to accept some demand like this one.
