Source: Iran Focus

Female political prisoners held in Iran’s notorious Evin Prison wrote in a statement: "It is up to us to leave their elections for themselves and remain in the real square of popular elections.

Anyone who goes to the polls, his/her fingerprint will remain on the trigger of the gun, which is pointed at the revolutionary youth, which is a confirmation of the ruling system and its crimes. The boycott and rejection of the election is an Iranian pact with the martyrs, especially the martyrs of the recent uprising."

"For 41 years, they are trying to show their totalitarian reign democratic by repeating the word "elections". But since the early days, the freedom of the people and their votes have been looted in Iran.

"On the same day that the Assembly of Experts was formed for the protection of the totalitarian religious dictatorship (Velayat-e-Faghih) instead of the Constituent Assembly with the free elections of the Iranian people, people’s right of sovereignty and the election was usurped and stolen from the Iranian people.
