Parliamentary elections are over in Iran. The time for closing the
polling stations was delayed for several times and the vote ended 5
hours later than it was scheduled.
According to local media, such a situation emerged because of the
great activeness on the voters. Already predictions are made that the
population participation indicator will be a record one. In connection
with this, the country's Spiritual Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei had
stated that the great activeness in election participation will be a
sign to the West on the background of the tension created over Iran's
nuclear programme.
According to analysts, supporters of Khamenei can hold a victory.
Opposition representatives almost didn't participate in the election,
some of them weren't allowed, others refused to nominate their
candidature. It is already known that for the two Armenian candidates
fighting for the country's parliamentary mandates have passed into the
parliament -Robert Beglaryan in Jugha, Karen Khanlaryan in Tehran.
