Presidential candidates travel to Europe in search of expat votes

Presidential candidates Amr Moussa and Hisham al-Bastawisy are traveling to Europe to present their electoral programs to the Egyptian communities living there, in an attempt to win their votes in the coming presidential elections.

“I suggest holding the elections on 25 January 2012 to coincide with the first anniversary of the revolution,” said Moussa, who is leaving for Paris on Wednesday for three days, after which he will head for Belgium, Spain, Italy and Austria.

His rival Bastawisy is also traveling soon to France, Austria and Hungary, where he will spend ten days campaigning for his candidacy.
