Elections- No. 3
NCRI – The mullah’s regime in order to counter the empty polling booths has announced that it is no longer necessary to have National Identification cards and old certificates without photo can also be used to vote! Mostafa Mohammad Najjar , the Mullah’s interior minister and the spokes person for the Guardian Council of the Mullahs, appeared on the scene a few hours after the start of the election and while the polling booths are extremely empty announced that it is no longer necessary to have the National Identification Card to vote. This was despite the previous statements by the ministry of interior emphasizing on the computerized National Identification Card as a prerequisite to vote.
The Mullah’s committee of election had announced on its election statement on the 25th of February 2012 that it is necessary to have the National Identification card for anyone to vote.
Using this scheme will give an open hand to the heads of the mullah’s regime to forge votes by giving vote twice, once with the National Identification Card and the second time using their birth certificate or even using the birth certificate of dead people.
At the same time, the Mullah’s regime has conditioned the families of the political prisoners to bring stamped birth certificates to prove that they have voted if they want to be able to visit their loved ones.
