Cairo is the governorate with the largest amount of non-Islamist voters, Alexandria is next
Brotherhood needs 'revolutionary' vote to beat Mubarak-era figure in runoff
Voters are overwhelmingly concentrated in the Greater Cairo and Delta governorates
Over a third of Islamist's votes were in four governorates
Over quarter of former PM support was in Cairo and home province of Sharqiya
The Greater Cairo area gave the Nasserist over 30 per cent of his votes
Cairo, Alexandria and Giza gave ex-Brother over one third of his total
Four zones gave Moussa 40 per cent of his votes, but he was popular in smaller regions too
