The opposition is trying to mobilize its last supporters to the ballot box for the presidential election, but the election of Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu, the rival of President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, seems unlikely in Sunday’s elections.
ISTANBUL Turkey is currently voting in the second round of the presidential election.
In the election apartment of the Cihangir district in Istanbul, you can see that everyone who can nail their nails wants to make a difference. The opposition is strong here.
An elderly woman is being lifted up high stairs in a wheelchair.
– He didn’t vote in the first round, but now he wanted to come. You probably know who she’s voting for, says the man accompanying the woman.
It turns out that the sound does not go To Recep Tayyip Erdoğan.
Voting in Istanbul seems to be going well, but there have been reports of election fraud in southeast Turkey again. In one case, there has apparently been an attempt to direct the votes of the village to Erdoğan.
An opposition member of parliament was punched when he tried to intervene in the events. But no very large-scale problems have been reported so far.
When the election result comes out on Sunday evening or at night at the latest, the assumption is that Erdoğan will win. Then we will also see if there will be a dispute about the result.
