While the results of the election are not entirely surprising, they are suspicious, to say the least.  The question is how large and sustained the backlash against Ahmadinejad will be.

I'm totally despaired...
I could not think a similar thig could happen. 66%... and with a formidable turnout...
The peasants and the workers chose a totally mad man just because his demagogy. It remembers me the american 2004 election. As in 2004, stupidity, prejudices and tradidtions won against progress and open-mindedness. Depressing news.
