Iran's Bush vs Gore
Michael Roston:
I expect that Ahmadinejad’s margin of victory will shrink. If the vote
wasn’t closer than it appears according to state-led media’s
projections, the reformist ex-mayor of Tehran, Gholamhossein Karbaschi,
probably would not be meeting with the Supreme Leader, as TehranBureau
reports from his Farsi-language Twitter feed. Something is being
brokered to contain the anger of the massive number of voters who
turned out to cast votes for reformist Mirhossein Mousavi. And you can
see another official lowering expectations of Ahmadinejad’s margin of
victory from the high 60s to a much lower number in this AFP story.
