Turkish media suggesting neither Erdogan nor Kilicdaroglu have likely reached 50%. So we’re looking at a run off. #Turkey2023
Speaks to the strength of Erdogan core vote that despite rampant inflation, deep economic problems (admittedly after many years of growth) and poor earthquake response that, he is still so competitive.
That said Erdogan has not faced a run off before.
Good news for him on the parliamentary front though. With 89.5% of votes counted, Erdogan's alliance looks set for a majority with 323 seats in the 600-seat Turkish parliament. Better than polls suggested for his bloc.
