Iran's elections

I'm getting rather sick of all the media attention the "elections" in Iran are getting. They're about as authentic as those ones Saddam had, where he got 99% or 100% of the vote, depending on the election. For one thing, you have to be cleared by the ruling mullahs before you can run. They disqualify anyone they don't like from running. For another, Iranians have become disillusioned with the elections, and aren't turning out to vote. This has led Iran to making up numbers for its vote totals to make it appear that there was a higher turnout (a low turnout shows that the people don't think the election is legitimate, except in more highly developed countries, where people feel they no longer need to care about politics). Western observers have all agreed that turnout was not anywhere near as high as the government claims. Iran is basically voter fraud the way the Democrats wish they could do it.
