The 2021 Iran presidential election

A peaceful transfer of power has been a landmark of the Islamic Republic’s political landscape over the past 42 years. Since its inception in 1979, the republic has relied on the vote of the people dozens and dozens of times, starting with the referendum on the establishment of the Islamic Republic in the first place.

Iran’s 13th presidential election is around the corner. Rival camps have been busy coming up with the names of their potential candidates, who will have to be approved by the country’s Constitutional Council before they can run. As people and the political elite ready up for the presidential election on June 18, the race for the presidency will be covered here in full.

Each is a milestone of democracy, and the line will continue to be marked over and over again over the years. The republic, after all, has always been about the people.
