With the death of Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi, an election for his replacement has been scheduled for 28 June 2024 (Al Arabiya, AP, Constitution of Iran, see Article 131). If no candidate wins an absolute majority, a runoff between the two candidates receiving the most votes would take place the following Friday (Constitution of Iran, see Article 117). The question will close early upon the election date (including a second round, as necessary) being rescheduled to a date after 2 August 2024.
