Iran will hold a runoff election between a reformist and a hard-liner

Iranians will head back to the polls next week to decide between a reformist and a hard-line conservative for president.

The runoff election comes after the first vote, which took place on Friday, ended with none of the candidates receiving a majority. Under Iranian election law, a candidate must get 50% and one vote in order to secure an outright victory.

But two top contenders did emerge: reformist Masoud Pezeshkian and hardliner Saeed Jalili.
