Accept the Iranian nation’s will by canceling the vote and guarantee the establishment’s survival.
Mehdi Karoubi • An Iranian presidential candidate who was the only cleric to run. He, along with high-attention opposition candidate Mir Hossein Mousavi and other guy Mohsen Rezaie, will meet with the Guardian Council tomorrow to consider complaints. Keep in mind, though, that they’ll be talking to this guy. And this guy is transparently in favor of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. So, this will be a tough day for these three dudes. • source
We decided to personally invite the esteemed candidates and those who have complaints regarding the election to take part in an extraordinary session of the Guardian Council to discuss their concerns with the members directly so that we will be able to make a decision.
Abbas Ali Kadkhodai • A spokesman for the Guardian Council, which is investigating allegations of fraud in the Iranian election. They’ve agreed to meet with the four presidential candidates, including Mir Hossein Moussavi, whose supporters have largely been leading the opposition protests. Whether this will change anything is anyone’s guess. • source
