Awake Goy Executive committees and representatives of supervising organizations, including the Guardian Council, have attended the polling stations and properly monitored the process of voting since the morning, Moqimi said on Friday.
“Up to now, no security case has been reported,” the official said, adding that regulations have fully been observed by the voters.
He further emphasized that no illegal action, like election advertisement, has been reported by the supervisors.
Moqimi also expressed the hope that the results of the polls would be announced in the early hours of tomorrow if the vote counting ends tonight.
Polls opened on Friday morning in constituencies where candidates failed to earn enough votes in the February elections.
The run-off elections are being held in 21 provinces for 69 remaining seats in the parliament as twice the number of the seats, namely 138 candidates, are running in the polls.
According to Iran’s Interior Ministry Spokesman Hossein-Ali Amiri, the ministry and the Guardian Council will have finished handling everything in relation to the parliamentary elections before the new legislature holds its first meeting on May 27.
