Iran's interior minister Mostafa Mohammad Najjar has said that initial figures show turnout in Friday's parliamentary elections was 64%. Mr Najjar told state TV the high turnout meant "the great Iranian nation slapped the enemies in the face". The preliminary figure came despite a boycott by the reformist opposition.
Is it just me, or do Iran's government spokesmen sound like they could be working at a Muslim version of Fox News?
