Iranian Presidential Election

Iran undertook its presidential election yesterday, resulting in extremely high turnout. The results? A run-off, the first ever in Iran’s history, is set for next Friday between former two-term president Hashemi Rafsanjani and ultra conservative Tehran mayor Mahmoud Ahmedinejad. I cover exactly what this all means for Iran as well as future nuclear negotiations at Digital Dissent.

In short, you thought negotiations were heated before? Hah.
