They complained that members of Ayatollah Ali Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjanis campaign team are roaming the streets in cities across Mazandaran province, urging people to vote in return for 250,000 Rials ($25) and a free hot lunch.
One resident said that Haj Moussa Vafayan, head of Mazandarans Chamber of Commerce, had ordered his staff to go to nearby towns and villages to offer the sum on behalf of Rafsanjani.
According to a member of the cash-paying team, who wished to remain anonymous, said that a second massive pay-per-vote campaign was planned to start at 2 p.m. until 5 p.m.
