Reply #29: exit polling

[Juche]

An exit poll showed Mousavi with 60% of the vote. The official result has him at 33%. Exit polls are a good way to detect fraud.

Khatami, who was president for 2 terms starting in the 90s (and who was a liberal reformist) won 70% of the vote in both elections. Khatami and Mousavi are helping each other (Mousavi helped Khatami in the 90s to get elected, Khatami supported Mousavi in this election). Iranian youth make up 1/3 of the electorate and tend to be more liberal and reformist. Iran is a heavily urban nation now.

All in all, it doesn't add up that Ahmadinejad would get 62% of the vote because the country has a variety of domestic problems, the population has strongly supported liberal candidates in the past and the exit polls don't match.
