in cairo's working society neighborhoods, members of the muslim brotherhood freedom justice party helped people confirm they were at the right voting station. but their presence underscores their strong organizational ability and suggests their months of separation before the vote will well pay off. interior designer hamid came out to cast a ballot against them. >> they don't do what they say they do. they use religion to convince people to vote for them. >> reporter: and even for observers from abroad, it's hard to get their heads around the changes. >> if you had one year ago said to me that mubarak would not be in power and the staff would announce they are turning over authority on july 1 of 2012, there would be parliamentary and soon to be announced presidential elections, i would have said you are crazy >> reporter: dozens of new parties have burst on to the political scene. finally having a say in their destiny. >> every egyptian has become politicized. we are all faithful to our country. the proof is that we are all standing in one line talking politely to one another because we

>> well, we're expecting definitely the party belonging to the muslim brotherhood, the freedom and justice party to have a very strong showing because they're tamong the most greased organization in the country. another party known here as the free egyptian party, a liberal party also expected to do very well in the showing. so, it's really about the coalition of parties that emerges. this is the first time that these parties are actually able to run really free and fair campaigns. when we're expecting the outcome, though, that's still several weeks away. we're talking about 27 in egypt today and only nine are going to the polls. 18 million voters. and the same thing will happen in three weeks' time and in another three weeks' time and then, again, the same process over the course of another six weeks in the beginning of 2012. so, you're really looking at about march before you have a fully functioning parliament that is up and running and start making some laws in this country. >> all right, in cairo for us. terrific report, thanks very much. >>> we're going to have more on the upheaval i

warner: how is the superior organizational muscle of the leading islamist party, the muslim brotherhood's party, freedom and justice? i gather that's really been quite on display at these polling places. what can you tell us about that? >> you know, in the different polling centers visited by our witnesses, we noted that there was a freedom and justice party presence at most of them including with party agents that were inside polling stations which is allowed from the egyptian code. and also outside interacting with voters. so based on that what we saw was what appears to be a great deal of organization for the election by the freedom and justice party. other parties were also out. we noted a number of other parties doing... observing the party agents, interaction with voters outside, assistance to their voters to tell them where to vote. but definitely among the parties the most prevalent that we saw was the freedom and just at this time party. ... justice party. >> warner: there seems to be some suspicion-- at least we've read reports of it-- caused by the long lag time between the very first voting

muslim brotherhood is an islamic group. it was banned for e decades -- banned for decades. in february, the brotherhood joined the revolution that overthrew mubarak's regime. and then for this election, rebranded itself as the freedom and justice party. >> the muslim brotherhood is going to be the largest block in parliament. it's just a question of how much really. >> reporter: there's no question that their knuckle politics lie ahead in egypt. but today, it was all about the novel thrill of simply having said. for the moment that the muslim brotherhood is going to great lengths to sound very moderate, they are not forcing women to wear vails, but they have a pro- business agenda. now, whether they drift slowly towards fundamentalism once anything settles down is everyone's guess. elizabeth palmer, cbs news, cairo. >>> tonight, the remains of the east bay marine killed in afghanistan are back in his hometown. thousands of people lined the streets in danville this afternoon to pay their respects to lance corporal joshua coralle. his body was flown to california on board a military plane that landed at travis air force base. friends and family then waited in the cold alongside total strangers to honor the soldier. >

we are doing our best to bring your freedom to you, so please try to get down, try to vote. >> reporter: the muslim brotherhood has a reputation as an extremist islamist party, but, in fact, in egypt, it's a modern, sophisticated political machine, and it's running candidates that range from mildly religious to fundamentalist and even a secular liberal here and there where it seems to make political sense. russ? >> mitchell: elizabeth palmer in cairo, thank you. nato and the united states are both investigating the weekend air strikes along the afghan border that left 24 pakistani soldiers dead. thousands of pakistanis converged outside the u.s. consulate in karachi today as antiu.s. protests spread. charlie d'agata has the latest. >> reporter: in a small village in northern pakistan today, they held a funeral for najeeb ullah, a young soldier mistakenly killed by nato forces. it was the last chance for asfand yar to see his young son's face.

you look at just some of the statements that have been coming out of muslim brotherhood out of the movement and its new party the freedom and justice party they're saying vets and nobody there you've been question the notion that islamic law shari'a should be the law of the land which on i'm sure that's a statement that a lot of factions in egypt would disagree with i mean there and other leaders have said that anyone who questions this idea of the church should be the law of the land they're being described as adulterers and alcoholics and drug addicts so this process of demonizing anybody who. as opposed to this fundamentalist view is already underway but she's also. just sharon or can be moderate just because literally brotherhood is getting possibly into power doesn't necessarily mean it's going to be a radical islamic regime to follow doesn't it. i'm not going to try and guess what the future will bring but what i would say is that up until now the muslim brotherhood's. vision for egypt is not a moderates a vision it's a vision where a religious fanatic interpretation of the koran would be the law of the line it's

can also tell you by all indications that the political wing of the islamist muslim brotherhood organization, that's the freedomtice party, will also do well, maybe as high as 40 percent, along with other muslim organizations, political parties with even more conservative views on things. the future government here could have a decidedly muslim build. according to the muslim brotherhood, they are open, they are inclusive, and in fact they are very active in the community and they're also pragmatic politicians. we did hear a lot of support for them on the ground but also the promotion of sharia law, the attitudes towards women and social mores have a lot of people worried here. take a listen to this: >> if they are going to return egypt to a second society or second era, i don't think this will be the place for me to live. >> you think that's a possibility with them? >> yes. i'm quite sure of it. >> reporter: as for foreign policy, you're right, some in washington are getting concerned, too. listen to what one muslim brotherhood official told me about possible future relations between egypt and israel: >> it's u

the freedom and justice party of the byzantine of the muslim brotherhood all. been conducted and the best a few weeks say that. it is it's not yet there is no any indicators that it would be a kind of a measure of presenting the majority of winning the majority of seats in the parliament but definitely it would be the largest bloc and the parliament if the muslim brotherhood does come out ahead or does get a majority what changes do you expect to see in egypt itself. when i think it is politically speaking it's important to recognise to institutionalize the muslim brotherhood as a political movement had been banned for long so bringing them to politics integrating them in a functioning democracy that is still very early on that ought to have really a functioning democracy but to do that this is important structural development in egyptian egyptian politics on the other hand it definitely it doesn't presume. inclinations of the significant part of the egyptian political i mean the conservative religious doubts about. relations with the west and that would mistak

muslim brotherhood party, is the best organized party in the country. i mean, that's evident any place you go, and, yes, there are people -- not just from the freedom and ty. but the important thing to notice, since 1928, the muslim brotherhood has made an attempt, they have been the opposition to whoever was in power. anwar sadat and during the reign of hosni mubarak. if one looks at that, there's big difference, and we know this in the united states of america. there's a big difference between being the outspoken opposition, having the responsibility to govern. i will tell you this. i know from having talked to people across this country, job creation and economic growth is what the egyptian people want and need, and in light of that, i think that whoever, whoever ends up tonight, and i'm going to be at counting stations late this evening, whoever ends up being victorious, and there will obviously be coalition building that will take place, the other thing to note a three-step process. then presidential elections. there's a long road of elections down the road. whoever is in a leadership position, they will have the responsibility to get this economy
