Iran Press/Iran News: Elaborating further Kadkhodaie said, some time ago the Majlis (parliament) passed legislation which requires voters to vote electronically in parliamentary and presidential elections, so eventually we need to switch to electronic voting, but because there are problems with electronic voting, no electronic voting will take place this February.
Hacking into election computer systems is also a problem that has to be considered, he added according to Iran Press.
Asked about disqualification of would-be candidates, Khadkhodaie said the Guardian Council does not enter politics and backs no particular political faction or political party.
He added: "We only carry out the law and stick strictly to the letter of the law. Obviously, the performance of existing MPs during the past four years in parliament will be taken into account when the Guardian Council issues an approval or disqualification of a would-be candidate."
The spokesman for the Council of Guardians wished a healthy and free parliamentary election this February, with a very large and enthusiastic turnout from the general public. 101/211
