There is strong competition between the Freedom and Justice and al-Nour parties in al-Hamool, while the al-Wafd Party came behind them. In the individual seats, al-Nour Party candidate Hassan Amera took the lead on other candidates. In Kafr el-Sheikh's third constituency, the Freedom and Justice Party took the lead, while al-Wafd Party representative Mohamed Abdel Aleem Dawood surpassed other candidates for the individual seat.
