This lack of trust in the electoral system has eroded confidence in the government and has fueled dissent and protest movements in the country. In recent years, there have been calls for greater transparency and accountability in Iranian elections. Reformist and opposition groups have pushed for electoral reforms, including the loosening of restrictions on candidate eligibility and the implementation of more robust monitoring mechanisms. However, these calls for reform have been met with resistance from the ruling regime, which has a vested interest in maintaining its control over the electoral process.
