Later today we'll find out who has won Egypt's Presidential Election, Mohammed Mursi of the Muslim Brotherhood or Ahmed Shafiq, who for a time was Prime Minister under ousted former President Hosni Mubarak. We ask Joel Beinin, Professor of Middle East History at Stanford University, who's likely to win and what Egypt will look like depending who wins.
