“Don’t speak about the death of a person before they are really gone.”
Ye right, he will win as all despots do on fake votes
He might lose, that doesn’t mean he will stop ruling though.
_They rigged the elections!_
— ~~Donald Trump~~ Recep Tayyip Erdoğan probably
His ignorance and stupidity will not be missed.
Isn’t it quite inconsistent to call something a “rule” and then expect it to end with elections? Either the rule epithet is wrong or the elections.
His party will still be the largest party in parliament. For 2 years, I think that the situation in Turkey may be the same as in Israel. The coalition will not agree and the pro-Erdogan wing within the state will not be willing to work with the new government. Erdoğan also thought that this would happen, he was saying to his close circle that there would be early elections in 2 years and we would come to power again.
If I were in Kılıçdaroğlu’s place, I would choose the ministers well and I would expect the Akp to disband in itself. I would expect their alliance to break down. Also, according to me, the election will go to the 2nd round anyway, and oddly enough, there is a %50-50 chance of being in the second round. While there are 63 million voters in a country of 85 million, there is a possibility that the election result will be determined by only a few hundred thousand votes. Chaos ensues in a slightly different election.
Kılıçdaroğlu can choose 2 things, either choosing to work with the existing bureaucrats and the system, or he can choose to replace the top bureaucrats completely. If he does the latter, he will have to go to early elections. He must choose his ministers well. He should select the Ministers of Defense, Foreign Affairs, Interior and Justice are acceptable to bureaucrats and the public. I do not think that neither the public nor the bureaucrats can tolerate Ünal Çeviköz’s ministry of foreign affairs. Then Kılıçdaroğlu should not think why Turkish intelligence spread his minister’s sex tape on the internet.
We’re talking about a 20-year government. Except for the first election they entered, they always got over 40% of the votes. The party has 11 million members. Even if Erdoğan dies, their support will continue. It will take at least 20 years for this party to disappear, even if they lose all future elections.
Foreign outlets realized that this is a possibility a mere two weeks ago. I would urge the foreigners here to not take the myopic view of these outlets as gospel.
If you are really interested, try a Turkish publication that is also available in English. My recommendation would be duvarenglish.

At least you’d expose yourself to a wider range of [stuff](https://www.duvarenglish.com/politics).
Remember. He **might** lose, but not **will**. There is still a chance that he can win again. Even if he loses, Erdogan will not accept defeat easily.
People forget that he got all those old people to vote for him, by giving them a day trip out of on busses.
The illusion of democracy is what gives him the power to destroy.
