The official said in televised remarks that Raisi had so far won 17.8 million votes. The official said more than 28 million Iranians out of 59 million eligible voters had cast ballots. State media earlier announced that Raisi had won, as his only moderate rival congratulated him. (Reporting by Parisa Hafezi; editing by John Stonestreet)
