According to a report from the Guardian, one of the defeated candidates, Independent Conservative Mohsen Rezaei, asked people who voted for him to send in their national ID numbers. So far he claims to have received 200,000 more ID numbers than he received votes in the official election results.

There have also been reports of ballot papers with votes for opponents of Mr Ahmadinejad being found abandoned on the roadside and of official turnout in some places being higher than the number of registered voters.
