Results of Iranian elections produced unique surprises in the country's history. Participation rate fell to 41%, the lowest since the victory of the Iranian Revolution in 1979.
20 electoral districts, including the capital, Tehran, went to a runoff after the invalid votes received first or second place in a number of centers. The loss of Sadiq Larijani was a shock to Iranians who were accustomed to seeing him in the highest positions of power. The first winner from Tehran reserved his seat in the next parliament by obtaining 597,770 votes.
