Iran’s Presidential Election: Voting will be held tomorrow

Tehran (HRNW) When the polls open on Friday for Iran’s presidential election, four men will be on the ballot, but one enjoys a significant lead over the others.

Observers predict Iran’s eighth president will be elected with very low turnout amid public disillusionment and widespread disqualification of reformist and pragmatic candidates by the Guardian Council, a 12-member constitutional vetting body.

On Wednesday, hardliner former nuclear negotiator Saeed Jalili, lawmaker Alireza Zakani and reformist former vice president Mohsen Mehralizadeh withdrew their candidacies, leaving four men in the race.
