Mohammad Khatami says the importance of the ballot box is that it represents the vote and opinion of the people, not a specific group.
Mohammad Khatami emphasizes that the significance of the ballot box lies in expressing the people’s vote and opinion, not that of a specific group. With the announcement of the presidential election date on June 28, speculations about voter turnout have begun.
Meanwhile, former Iranian President Mohammad Khatami, before the death of Ebrahim Raisi, in a meeting with members of the Central Council of the Democracy Party, stated that when you do not have your preferred candidate, naturally you do not see a reason to participate. He mentioned that if the leader’s statements about the elections, that all factions should have their own candidates, had been made earlier and practically enabled, the factions could and should have participated actively in the elections.
Khatami stated that while elections are important, if they become devoid of meaning, efforts should be made to restore that meaning. He added, the importance of the ballot box is that it reflects the vote and opinion of the people, not a specific group, and if it deviates from its position, efforts should be made to return it to its rightful place.
