Unfortunately tensions emitting from the U.S and Westerners' propaganda will result in a low turnout.

Real democracy occurs when the president is elected with acceptable voter turnout.

Real democracy occurs when all candidates and voters can fully discuss all issues without fear of persecution, and when candidate access to the ballot is reasonably free, not vetoed by the very people who hold all the important powers already. If mere turnout percentage determined democracy, any rubber-stamp Communist or Nazi election would have resulted in democracy.

So, Pasagarde, in your mind, it's Western propaganda that suppresses the voter turnout, not voter awareness of the futility of voting under the structure of the Islamik Respublik, that mandates any president and/or parliament will be powerless stooges or puppets of the Imam/Governing Council?

If Iran is already free, as you seem to be implying, what are you doing in a forum of people working to achieve freedom for an unfree land, one rated in the bottom seven of human rights violators on the planet?
