Iran
A source-linked foundation for Iran election institutions, permanent civic records, and future national and local data adapters.
Everything live for Iran, in one place.
This is the complete published scope—not a directory of agency links. Each layer below is normalized into Election.org's permanent country record and kept separate from planned coverage.
Who selects whom—and who can stop whom?
Dots are sourced institutions. Choose one formal power at a time— election, appointment, confidence, removal, veto, oversight, or constitutional review. Missing evidence produces a visible gap, never a guessed line.
Institution names are mapped to the IPU Parline country/chamber layer; current membership counts are not copied into this release.
The foundation is live. The full country platform is next.
Election.org publishes only the fields supported by the attached sources. A country page is not evidence that every election or candidate record has been collected.
