Kerry: Credibility of Iran's election hurt by candidates' disqualification

The Iranian Guardian Council's disqualification of candidates for Iran's election next month made it hard to view the ballot as "free, fair, open, accessible (or) accountable," U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said on Friday.

Speaking to reporters during a visit to Israel, Kerry said there were "trouble signs" of meddling by the Tehran government in Iran's Internet.
