Iran elects on national level a head of government (the president), a legislature (the Majlis), and an "Assembly of Experts" (which elects the head of state, the Supreme Leader). Also City and Village Council elections are held every 4 years throughout the country. The president is elected for a four year term by the people. The Parliament or Islamic Consultative Assembly (Majlis-e Shura-ye Eslami) has 290 members, elected for a four year term in multi- and single-seat constituencies. Elections for the Assembly of Experts are held every 8 years. All candidates have to be approved by the Guardian Council. See Politics of Iran for more details.
