| (Xinhua) -- Iranians on Friday began voting in the country's eighth parliamentary elections in which conservatives are expected to retain their control of the legislature. The polling stations opened at 8 a.m. (0430 GMT) Friday morning and were due to close at 6:00 p.m. (1430 GMT). But the deadline would be extended if there is heavy turnout, the state television reported. |

| #1 conservatives are expected to retain their control of the legislature I guess they will when they are the only one's the mullahs allow to run for office. Not that a Chinese communist news service sees anything wrong with that. |
