Comprised of only religious jurists, the Guardianship Council is a twelve member examining body that possesses constitutional authority on matters of vetting candidates for all elections in Iran (from municipal elections to the consultative council).Without the consent of the Guardianship Council, no candidate can make it to the ballot. It also has the primary duty to deem laws and treaties proposed by the Consultative Assembly or the President as Islamic or otherwise. If deemed un Islamic or anti revolutionary (in accordance with howsoever the council defines the terms), the Council reserves the right to downright veto it.
