Why is voter turnout so low in Iran? | DW News

Voters in Iran are going to the polls in a run-off election to choose a successor to late President Ebrahim Raisi, who was killed in a helicopter crash in May along with the foreign minister and other officials.
The two contenders are Saeed Jalili, 58, a hard-liner who is a former negotiator with the West over Iran's contentious nuclear program, and Masoud Pezeshkian, 69, a heart surgeon and reformist politician who was health minister from 2001 to 2005.
