Iran Presidential Election 2024, Tehran - 01 Jul 2024
An Iranian man walks past a poster featuring a portrait of Pezeshkian while people gather to watch a live televised debate between Iran's 2024 presidential election candidates, Saeed Jalili, Iranian presidential ultraconservative candidate and top former nuclear negotiator, and Masoud Pezeshkian, Iranian presidential reformist candidate, at the central election headquarters for Pezeshkian in downtown Tehran. The recent Iranian presidential election showed a decline in support for reformists and conservatives. However, some voters still advocate for change by endorsing the sole reformist candidate, Masoud Pezeshkian. Following a historically low turnout, he will face ultraconservative Saeed Jalili in a runoff on July 5.
