Istanbul May 28 2023: The head of Turkey’s high election board has said that President Erdogan is leading the presidential race with 54.5 percent with 54.6 percent of the ballots boxes counted, according to official results.
Figures published by the opposition ANKA news agency now show Erdogan in the lead with 50.06 percent of the votes vs Kilicdaroglu’s 49.4 percent and 88.8 percent of ballot boxes opened. ANKA had previously had Kilicdaroglu marginally in the lead, but that has now evaporated.
