0:51Now PlayingIran's supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei cast his vote Friday as polls opened for parliamentary elections.
Turnout will be seen as a key indicator of support for the government after thousands of moderate candidates were barred from standing.
The parliament in Iran does not have the power to dictate major policies, but it does debate the annual budget and the possible impeachment of ministers.
Power in Iran ultimately rests with Khamenei, who has the final say on all key matters.
Initial results are expected to be announced on Saturday.
