Heinz Fischer vs Mohamed Morsi

Heinz Fischer was elected President of Austria on April 25, 2004, winning 52.4% of the vote against Benita Ferrero-Waldner. He succeeded Thomas Klestil and took office on July 8, 2004.

Fischer was re-elected for a second term on April 25, 2010, winning 79.3% of the vote, one of the highest margins in Austrian history. He faced only minor opposition candidates.

Fischer's second term ended on July 8, 2016, after 12 years in office. He was constitutionally barred from seeking a third term. He was succeeded by Alexander Van der Bellen.

Morsi won Egypt's first democratic presidential election after the 2011 revolution, defeating Ahmed Shafiq. He became the first Islamist and first civilian president of Egypt, representing the Muslim Brotherhood's Freedom and Justice Party.

Morsi issued a constitutional declaration that placed his decisions above judicial review and protected the constituent assembly drafting the new constitution. This move sparked massive protests and accusations of a power grab, deepening political polarization.

After mass protests against his rule, the Egyptian military led by General Abdel Fattah el-Sisi removed Morsi from office. He was placed under house arrest and later faced trials on charges including espionage and inciting violence.

Morsi collapsed and died during a court hearing in Cairo where he was on trial for espionage. His death was attributed to natural causes, but his family and supporters alleged medical neglect. He was buried in a secret location.
