Candidates Wrap Up Campaigning – Rouhani Surging Ahead

Iran’s six presidential hopefuls wrapped up their campaign on Thursday ahead of tomorrow’s election. A latest poll by IPOS, taken on Wednesday, shows Rouhani surging in popularity, finishing first with Qalibaf at a rather distant second place. 



With a large percentage of voters still undecided, the election could be decided in the first round, especially if Rouhan’s surge continues, although many analysts expect the election to go to the second round on Friday 21 June.
