Turkish opposition party beats Erdogan in local elections | BBC News

Turkey's main opposition party has claimed big election victories in the main cities of Istanbul and Ankara.
The results are a significant blow for Recep Tayyip Erdogan, who had hoped to regain control of the cities less than a year after he claimed a third term as president.
He led the campaign to win in Istanbul, where he grew up and became mayor.
But Ekrem Imamoglu, who first won the city in 2019, scored a second victory for the secular opposition CHP.

[@deucalion0]

it is not a success of CHP but rather the failure of AKP. but still a win's a win

[@genkihoriguchi5612]

CHP, the main opposition party, is the party of Atatürk's dictator. It is a dictatorship party from the single-party times. It is similar to the communist party in China. You don't know what you are celebrating. The opposition had no effect on the election results. Erdogan was defeated by himself. The reaction votes shifted to the opposition, but it was temporary.

In celebrations of CHP, there were no gunshots, no hate speech and actions, no humiliation. There were just happy people, much more TÜRKIYE flags, and Turkish marches; unlike AKP's celebrations with humiliations and violent actions. Because we are happy that Türkiye won, not only a party. We are not enemies of other people, we just want our country to be good and mighty again.

2:57 Kurdish city? No city in Turkey is a Kurdish city. Kurds are just our brothers living in the Turkish homeland.

[@MrAenes67]

They do not mean that… It could be misunderstood but even Ottomans named that region Kurdistan… I cant believe how people are afraid of simple names. Names do not give power. Ignorance towards problems and the inability to fix them created more problems and he were are! Getting annoyed by a simple name. Kurds have their own language, literature, lifestyle(I do not like it personally). We need more investments for the Southeastern part of Turkiye. Kurdish population is lagging behind in both modern life and education. If not for the damned terror. We would not have as many problems as we did in the past.(Edit: I am not a Kurd but have a lot of Kurdish friends)

[@emelcelik2211]

​@@MrAenes67es war ein Fehler von Osmanen diese türkische Region Kurdistan zu nennen. Kurden wurden in die osmanische Reich gebracht, damit sie die türkische Bevölkerung vernichten können. Das war der Yavuz Sultan Selim. Yavuz Sultan hat Verrat an türkische Volk begannen. Weil die Türken ihre türkische Identität nicht gegen arabische austauschen wollten, geraten sie in ein Konflikt mit dem Sultan. Kurden wurden in den Osten der Türkei eingesiedelt, um die Türken zu verdrängen. Es gab in der Geschichte keine einzige Staat Namens Kurdistan. Daher ist es historisch falsch diese Gebiete so zu nennen.

Throughout history, Turks have made revolutions and jumped forward as they have been depressed. For example, granting Turkish women the right to vote and be elected was accepted with the Constitutional amendment made in the Parliament on December 5, 1934. Following the recognition of this right, 17 female deputies were elected to the Parliament in the general elections held in 1935. Anatolian women gained the right to vote and be elected 36 years before Swiss women, 11 years before their French counterparts and 14 years before Belgians. Even though we are sometimes deceived by politicians who use religion, we will eventually return to a secular lifestyle.
