TEHRAN (Reuters) - Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said on Saturday an election in which he secured another four-year term was "free and healthy," rejecting allegations of irregularities by a moderate rival in the vote.

"People voted for my policies," the conservative president said in televised address a day after the disputed election.
