Iranians vote in parliamentary election expected to be dominated by conservatives

An Iranian woman casts her vote during parliamentary elections at a polling station in Tehran, Iran February 21, 2020.

The shoot-down and attempts by officials to initially conceal the cause of the crash sparked public anger and protests in Iran. Iranians have seen the price of basic goods skyrocket, inflation and unemployment rise and the local currency plummet since President Donald Trump withdrew the US from Iran's nuclear agreement with world powers and imposed sanctions. The economic woes faced by ordinary Iranians fueled anti-government protests in November.

A parliament stacked with hard-liners could favour expanding the budget for the Revolutionary Guard Corps, which has been sanctioned by the US. It could also tilt public policy debates toward hard-liners who are opposed to engagement with the US.
