  1. So I’m an ignorant American, I don’t know how the election system works in Turkey, but why is one party (CHP) running 3 different candidates for the same position?

  2. Although some of the reasons that Erdoğan gets 41% is the inclusion of sided polls and old polls, he still gets between 31%-36% votes of the people even when we eliminate those polls. The problem is that because of the old honeymoon period, the government collected too much power and have great control over media and everything. They can manipulate good chunks of people easily who can’t think rationally and have a weird bond with the government. Other than that, he dominated the elections so long, only the oldest parties survived in this period which they also not in a good shape, only just in the last three years new parties started to thrive but those people also from old parties so opposition doesn’t give much hope to general people too, unfortunately. Also, we are still far away from elections. The main changes will be determined in the elections. Turkish people can easily affect by small things. We see that in the last İstanbul election which opposition won with a landslide victory. It has always been like this.

    Not: Lan ne yanlış söyledim de downvoteluyorsunuz beni. Söyleyin düzelteyim, dua edin dediğim için mi yiyorum şu anda bunları? Al siliyorum amk o kısmı.

  3. If Erdogan wins again he will fuck up the economy even more

    Maybe try electing a CHP President and see how things go

  4. Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu is the only one to support among these candidates. The rest either have a far right back ground like Mansur Yavaş or a history of shoddy ass politics during pre AKP times like Meral Aksener who also has a far right back ground.

    The only other decent candidate is İmamoğlu, but he is too new and too young and doesn’t have the trust of minorities as much as Kılıçdaroğlu does.

    Kılıçdaroğlu has a history of defending social democracy and has moved the CHP towards that ideology and away from hard line kemalism. At least the dude has some sort of an ideology you can point to. Can’t say the same for any of the other candidates.

    Babacan and Gül are AKP light and not to be trusted. Babacan was Erdoğan’s economy minister for years. Gül was his right hand man for years. Fuck em.

    No one knows what the hell Ince is doing. He was the last CHP presidential candidate. Was the most successful candidate against Erdogan so far but recently formed his own party and criticized CHP for moving away from Kemalism. The only thing that dude will be good for is stealing votes from the opposition. Total fucking tool for AKP whether it is deliberate or not.

  5. I support Ali Babacan. He is the only leader who actually realizes that state is only for people. Other opposition candidates are just some politicians while Ali Babacan looks more like a technocrat who doesn’t give a fuck about right or left.

  6. Upcoming presidental election? I thought that was in 2023, or am I mistaken? thats ages till then and the opinion can shift quite a bit in that time

  7. Why are there 3 CHP candidates in there? Also how can the average be so far above 100%? Are you allowed to vote for multiple people?

  8. For clarification,

    For the opposition figures: The average percentage of the candidate against Erdogan. (For example: Mansur Yavas’ average percentage against Erdogan is 45.94, while Erdogan’s is much lower)

    For Erdogan: The average percentage of Erdogan against all the potential candidates. (Keep in mind that Erdogan is much powerful than the last three names, so the fact that he has a 41% average percentage is so bad for him.)

  9. Don’t know much about Erdogan but since he’s making the international news every week, safe to assume it’s better that he loses?
