Шаблон:Infobox election Parliamentary elections were held in Iran on 15 April 1984, with a second round on 17 May.[1] The majority of seats were won by independents, whilst the Islamic Republican Party was the only party to win seats. Voter turnout was 65.1% in the first round.[2]

The Freedom Movement of Iran declared that it would boycott the elections after its headquarters was attacked and the authorities refused to permit the party to hold two seminars.[3]

Background

The election was held under conditions of severe sanctions on politic and economical sector as well as war with Iraq's Baathist government (Iran-Iraq War). This election was also first time since 1979 revolution which only one political party were allowed to participated (as other political parties were banned & even dissolved before this election).

Conduct

The election was held under conditions of war with Iraq's Baathist government (Iran-Iraq War), caused many cities in border with Iraq were severely destroyed (or could not hold direct election). Therefore. this election was conducted with two ways :

  1. Direct national election (for areas that were not heavily affected by war and also for religious minorities seats)
  2. Indirect national election (for areas that were heavily affected by war -mainly in border with Iraq-)

Out of 193 constituencies, 187 (including 5 electoral districts for religious minorities ) hold direct election while the six others hold indirect elections. These six were :

  1. Mehran (Ilam & Mehran constituency) - Ilam Province
  2. Dehloran (Dehloran & Darreh Shahr constituency) - Ilam Province
  3. Abadeh (Abadeh constituency) - Fars Province
  4. Susangerd (Dasht-e-Azadegan constituency) - Khuzestan Province
  5. Khorramshahr (Khorramshahr constituency) - Khuzestan Province
  6. Qasr-e-Shirin (Qasr-e-Shirin & Sarpol-e-Zahab constituency) - Kermanshah Province
