More than 50 million people will elect a successor to current Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad on Friday. Cleric Hassan Rowhani has emerged as one of the front-runners in the poll. Analysts say he has a chance of forcing a run-off with one of the three main conservative candidates, the former foreign minister Ali Akbar Velayati, Tehran mayor Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf and chief nuclear negotiator Saeed Jalili.
