Mousavi Rejects Partial Vote Recount- Demands Re-Run

Mir Hossein Mousavi today formally rejected the government’s offer for a partial recount of the ballots cast in the 12 June disputed presidential election. Mousavi again demanded a full re-run of the election.

"Limiting the probe into complaints about electoral irregularities to recounting 10 percent of the ballot boxes cannot attract people's trust and convince public opinion about the results," Mousavi said on his campaign website Ghalamnews.ir.

"I insist again on cancelling the election results as the most suitable way out of the problem," Mousavi said.
