— 🇮🇷 NEW: As of half an hour ago, voter turnout has already exceeded 40%, which was the total voter turnout last Friday during the first round

@Middle_East_Spectator

Rural turnout is much higher than expected.

Good for Jalili.

Will it be enough? Nobody knows.

— 🇮🇷 NEW: Voter turnout has surpassed 47%, with two hours left of voting – it will likely surpass 50% by midnight, making it higher than in the 2021 Presidential election

@Middle_East_Spectator

Regardless of the outcome, voter turnout since 2021 is now back in an uptrend, which is a very good thing.

— ❗️WARNING:

In the coming hours, the enemies of the Islamic Republic will likely try to doubt the integrity of the election results.

Iran International, an opposition news outlet, has already started to claim that the turnout has been manipulated. If Dr. Saeed Jalili wins the election, external enemies will try even harder to discredit the result, just like they did in 2009.

Whatever the result, it is fair and watertight; both candidates have representatives in all polling stations to monitor the counting of the votes. Large scale fraud is impossible.

@Middle_East_Spectator

— 🇮🇷 NEW: The three provinces with the highest voter turnout are Yazd (70.9%), South Khorasan (70.24%), and Koohgiluyeh - Boyer Ahmad (68.74%)

All of these provinces went mainly to Dr. Saeed Jalili during the first round of the Presidential election last Friday.

@Middle_East_Spectator

There are NO results yet, neither official nor non-official.

Any channel that claims otherwise is wrong.

Masoud Pezeshkian's security team has been replaced with an increased security detail.

As of now, it is extremely close.

Some media falsely claiming that Pezeshkian won with 16 million votes to Jalili's 13 million votes, are very premature.

Only go based on official numbers. This is why I don't share rumors or unofficial stats.
