President Erdoğan, in power for 20 years, will he be re-elected in Turkey? His opponent calls on voters to get rid of it. But this one approaches the second round of the presidential elections in the position of favorite.

In a polling station, voters come en masse on the morning of May 28. Against all odds, they largely chose the incumbent president in the first round. It must be said that Recep Tayyip Erdoğan multiplied the largesse during the campaign. He is the big favorite in the second round, with unconditional support from the official media. In a district of Istanbul (Turkey), we salute the results of the president.

The results expected in the evening

“He’s a strong man but he can sometimes make mistakes, especially for the economy”, thinks a man. Double-digit inflation makes daily life difficult for Turks. To catch up, the opposition candidate has outbid anti-immigration, promising to send home all Syrian immigrants. Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu’s supporters are still hoping for his victory. The results are expected in the evening.
