The guardian council has been seen as siding with Ahmadinejad in this standoff. Therefore, this development is significant.

The link that I provided is to the official english news agency of the Islamic Republic of Iran.

It is unknown what "3 million votes affected" means. Does it mean that 3 million total votes existed in those 50 cities? Does it mean that 3 million votes exist above 100% turn out? Frankly, it should not matter as even if one small city has a turn out above 100% that means that the election is a sham.
