Some good news for the Iranian-Americans hoping to protest in Chicago today. The City finally approved their permit and the rally will be held downtown in Federal Plaza at 4:30 p.m. this afternoon, according to CBS 2. Similar protests are happening in other cities today as well. We'll have pictures tomorrow, but be sure to follow along on Twitter using the "#iranelections" tag and our pals at @windycitizen for constant updates. [via Windy Citizen]
