You couldn't make it up...

Abbas-Ali Kadkhodaei, spokesman for Iran's Guardian Council:

"Statistics provided by the candidates, who claim more than 100% of those eligible have cast their ballot in 80-170 cities are not accurate -- the incident has happened in only 50 cities"

Well that's all right then. Perhaps Messrs. Khamenei and Ahmadinejad have more in common with some of the more unsavoury characters in American history than they would like to think, and their supporters are following Al Capone's purported advice to "vote early and vote often". It is also possible that they are following a more detailed guide, freely available at this website. The authors are really missing a trick by not charging for their advice.
