When the election results were announced, the Melliyun party had obtained about 45 percent, and the Mardom party 35 percent of Majles seats, with the rest going to independents. In Teheran, pro-Amini independents had gained six out of fifteen seats, but Amini himself had not run. Nationalist candidates running individually, like Borumand in Isfahan, had been forcibly prevented from campaigning, with one exception: in Kashan, Saleh ran unopposed and was elected.

The Melliyun led with sixty-nine seats, the Mardom had sixty-four. But with neither party holding a majority, the votes of the thirty-two independents also elected would be decisive. And among the thirty-two was the name of Allahyar Saleh, the leader of the Iran party, the intellectual wing of the National Front.
