The Iranian presidential elections will be on May 19th. Current President Rouhani - who is neither a reformist nor a conservative, yet who has aided Iran to alleviate sanctions in relations to the JCPOA - will be running for re-election, but his victory is not guaranteed. His main opponent is a conservative who runs one of Iran's holiest shrines, and thus perhaps has the endorsement of the Supreme Leader. Thoughts about the election? Possible predictions? Any other comments regarding Iran?
