On Friday, 18 June 2021, many Iranians will be voting in four elections. Presidential elections and balloting for local councils will be held across the country while there will be by-elections for parliament and the Assembly of Experts, a group of clerics that theoretically chooses the next Supreme Leader. Tehran, uniquely, will hold all four.
