TL;DR Summary

Former Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and other notable figures, including moderate Ali Larijani and ultraconservative Saeed Jalili, have registered to run in the upcoming presidential election following the death of President Ebrahim Raisi. The Guardian Council will vet the candidates, with the final list to be announced on June 11. Ahmadinejad, previously sidelined, aims to address economic issues and corruption, while Larijani, disqualified in 2021, seeks another chance. Voter turnout remains a significant concern.
