Iranians, here's an election held! You wanna vote?

A secular republic

Mixture of government and religion, destroys both.

There are many factors. 1. There was 85% turnout. That's very high and high turnout almost always favors opposition partys. 2. Text and computer communications were shut down on election day by the ruling party. 3. The members of the opposition party were restricted from polling places. 4. The opposition leader lost the popular vote in his home city where he was very, very popular. I also want to address the end of your question by saying the media is an important part of democracy. Anytime it is censored you can not have a fair election and society. I don't think that we should sit back passively when a democratic country is taken over by a dictator. I think to call president Obama a stuffed suit and to try and compare his election to this Iranian situation, or to compare what's happening to the Iranian media to what happened in 2008 would be irrational, misinformed and irresponsible. I think the Iranians are crying out for international help and change. They don't want to be the bad people we make them out to be. I hope we don't fail to see that, and now is the time to give them our support.

Number 2: I'm 100% for a secular republic. The reasons are pretty much obvious I guess.

You're right. The federal system is something we should be wary of; Iran is not the USA as you pointed out, so I think separatist movements, especially when manipulated and supported by western governments, could actually pose a real threat for the future of our country. I believe we need to take this issue very seriously, although I'm glad to see that our young people seem already to be aware of this :)

Thanks for the great question !

What a great Q !

Actually number 2...cause according to our experiences abt monarchy and the constitutional monarchy ,i think its obvious that at least 95% of ppl who lives in Iran don want that kind of government again...and those who wants it back again want it just because they like it for no good reason...[as a woman on voa said :'' Reza Pahlavi !here it is..if ppl want him..he can be a great choice..lol'' and then a man answered her :''We have many great leaders and good man such Karroubi and Mousavi in Iran who has faced many prils to support ppl and their rights''

Secularism as a necessity...cause these days religion is most of the times a means for ppl [especially who are politician ]to account for their dirty work.

explain about my vote?what do u mean ?:D

Although I decided not to vote any more in the current regime but as this is a cyber voting I'll take part in it.

I choose no.2 and I do want a secular society, no more religious authority, no more interfiering in our privet lives, feedom of speech, equal rights for everyone with out considering the gender, religion & ethinic. I want to see a united free IRAN.

Edit: I agree with you that after ellection we had something to fight for. But are we going to exprence this situation once more? I'm not going to let them take advantage of me and use me for their dirty goals so under the same circumstances I won't vote again.

Edit: Maybe if you get older and take part in some elections and finally don't get the result you were waiting for, you will loose your hope and feel the same as we do!!!

Don't worry about the writing mistakes, I didn't even noticed while reading :P I always get a great help of spell check ;)

this can hardly be considered as a vote, it's more a wish that we -all the Iranians- had the capability to have a free secular democratic government. talking about all Iranians, not the educated fellows on internet; and this would take even centuries to be acquired. that's why this is a wish, not a vote. when there is no ground for such a system, we can't have it. no one can bring it for us, we must patiently reach it ourselves.

edit: thanks. whatever it is, I'm against anything like monarchy. we have tasted it in different shapes. I'm gonna vote for federal republic. but I see no actual basis for setting that up unfortunately.

number 2.

and definitely secularism.God!can u imagine how good life can be if we live in a secular Iran??

although,even if there were such an election,i wouldn't vote.i voted for the first and last time this year.it was a mistake.i'm sorry for myself.i actually believed we could make a difference.

2 or 5 are great.

2 is the best for me, but 5 is great too which changes the whole country into something like the U.S so each state will have their own rules and flags but the whole country remains under a single flag and constitution. this might prevent near border cities like "Kordestan, Western Azerbaijan and Baluchestan" from rebellion and separating from the country (separation).

yes i like a Secular regime! who doesn't? :)

Edit : well, maybe you're right, i'm no expert in this case :)

Edit : i won't support Royal systems anymore :)

I dream about a Secular Iran every night .

a secular Iran most definitely.

we need real democracy going on in this country.

so probably number two,a brand new Republic.

equal rights.

right to talk

right to think,

freely.
