Following the vote, the president visited various parts of the country’s Elections Headquarters.

More than 7,000 candidates are competing to enter the parliament. A winning candidate must have at least 20 percent of the votes cast in their constituency in order to become lawmaker for a four-year term.

A total of 57,918,000 people are eligible to cast their ballots. There would be one lawmaker at the Parliament per each 190,000-strong segment of the Iranian population.
