Mohammad-Ali Hosseinzadeh (Persian: محمدعلی حسین‌زاده; 21 March 1977 – 7 May 2016) was an Iranian principlist politician who was elected as the representative of Maragheh and Ajabshir electoral district in the 2016 Iranian legislative election.

2016 election

In the first round of the elections, the Principlists Grand Coalition listed no candidate in Maragheh and Ajabshir district because there were two Principlist candidates contesting against each other, incumbent Mehdi Davatgari (supported by United Front of Principlists in 2012 election) and Mohammad-Ali Hosseinzadeh. The List of Hope chose to declare "silence", meaning they were not endorsing any candidate. People's Voice listed Davatgari, while Front of Prudence and Development supported Hosseinzadeh.

No one can't say a word to me, because they know that anyone who breaks the law, will give him hell...", "Let them kill us, they kill and someone will replace me. Let them eat shit!", he added. The markings was filmed with cellphones and vent viral on social media after he was elected.
