I wonder if the Iranians are aware of the election system in older democracies. They are very simple but may not be familiar to them. ie. Every candidate has the right to have a few representatives at every polling station. Each new poling box is inspected by the reps of each party before being locked and put in use. Polling boxes are locked as they fill and are stored in plain sight. Counting is done by representatives of every party with agreement between all of them necessary before the results are sent to the central counting location. Polling boxes are put under lock and key on site (never transported) when the counting is finished and each party has their lock on the door. And finally, the results from all polling stations is publically reported so that each party can see that what they reported was unchanged when it got to the counting centre. When I lived in Africa, the opposition party was most surprised when I told them about the rights of an opposition party. Perhaps The Iranian opposition should campaign on these very obviously reasonable measures before going to another election. Arguing against such measures would make the party in power look completely foolish.
