“While there have been many calls to boycott Iran’s elections in the past, they have never been as strong, numerous and determined as those witnessed in the past few weeks” writes @mohalsulami

Given the growing boycott calls and media reports, as well as opinion polls suggesting a record low turnout on June 18, the regime’s old strategy of threats and intimidation are unlikely to work in forcing the Iranian electorate to the polling stations. The general disillusionment with the regime and its policies and the expectation that a hard-line president will soon take Rouhani’s place in the presidential Saadabad Palace means that anyone hoping to achieve a high turnout in the election, like that witnessed in 2017, is likely to be disappointed.
