In a couple of days the Guardian Council officially announces the candidates eligible for the elections. Rumors say that the leading “reform” candidate Mostafa Moeen has been disqualified and is not allowed to run for the presidency. This could mean the end of the “reform camp”, with no candidate in the elections and no obvious leader, the road is cleared for the conservatives to yet again dominate the country. This also means that the Teheran regime has given up the idea of pretending that elections are fair and legitimate.
The elections will now most probably stand between three candidates, Rafsanjani, Larijani and Ghalibaf. All three belonging to the “conservative” camp with close ties to the “supreme leader” Ali Khamenei, even if Rafsanjani is running as an independent.
