Here’s a screen cap from the front page of today’s Etemad-e Melli, the mouthpiece of Mehdi Karroubi’s party of the same name. It reads “Interior Ministry announces Karroubi comes in fifth.” But wait, there were only four candidates running? According to the ministry 1.04% of ballots were declared invalid, which bested Karroubi’s reported .85%.
Meanwhile. over Nader Uskowi is citing “reliable source at Iran’s Ministry of Interior” who said that the real totals were as follows:
Mousavi: 19,075,623 = 52%
Ahmadinejad: 13,387,104 = 37%
