**I’ll explain the narrow majority idea**

**To avoid a run off vote one candidate must have just over 50% of the vote. Though Erdogan is quite a bit ahead of the US backed opposition- the 50 percent + is the way their elections work**

[**82 percent of the vote and Erdogan is there**](https://tvpworld.com/69845366/turkish-election-erdoan-still-with-narrow-majority-after-82-pct-votes-counted)

> **With 82.54 percent of the votes counted, Recep Tayyip Erdoğan still leads with 50.3 pct. of votes compared to Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu’s coalition at 43.91 pct.**

**There are reported fireworks and masses of cheering supporters of Erdogan and AKP party- However, imperialist media is reporting as if it’s undecided. Is it?**
