Sure is!

The last parliamentary elections, like all for the last 30 years, were fixed for Mubarak's party, the NDP Party, with prohibitions against some opposition parties even being allowed on the ballot.

The constitution provided the legal cover for those fixed elections, as well as the other restrictions on individual rights.

In effect, the Egyptians will need to start from scratch.
