EXPLAINER: Iran vote to determine next president, directionDUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — Iran's presidential election Friday will determine who will lead the country's civilian government as tensions remain high between the Islamic Republic and the West over its tattered nuclear deal with world powers. No it won’t. That decision had already been made behind closed doors. Please remember this is a terrorist supporting regime, not a democracy. Khamenei runs the country. Don't even pretend and try to make this farce of an election legitimate. Nothing happens in that country without the dictator's say so. As I predicted no mention of Iranians boycotting the election in your piece. Even Ahmadinejad has fans in your fictional world but you can't see at least 70% of Iranians who won't vote.
