Erdogan declares victory in Turkey's runoff election | DW News

Turkey's incumbent president has declared victory in historic run-off elections. Unofficial results from state-run and independent news agencies put Recep Tayyip Erdogan in the lead.
The state-run Anadolu agency puts Erdogan on just over 52 percent of the vote with more than 99 percent of the ballot boxes opened. His challenger Kemal Kilicdaroglu, a secular former civil servant, is at just under 48 percent.

Election will be fair till the election results come in favour of western countries...
That's exactly what the reporter were saying

[haskalah]

😂😂😂😂😂 Our western media wished him to fail so much. Now that he won "how fair was the election" 😂😂😂😂😂

[foilhat]

The upside is Turkey can now gain access to free energy by harnessing the power of Atatürk spinning in his grave.

Western media are desperate and their frustration touched peaks during Turkish Elections. DW is also crying and mourning behind the scenes and we are loving it. Long Live Turkiye, Long Live Erdogan 🙏

Here comes DW News, the expert of nothing.

[iftikharul-haq]

DW tried very hard to promote Turkish opposition and their leaders. Bad luck DW as your biased reporting failed to produce desired results.

Even while facing extremely adverse socioeconomic conditions, the Turks chose to avoid the US lackey. He would most likely help "rescue" Turkey from this turbulent state, albeit at the cost of sovereignty, dignity and actual freedom in substance. They saw through the bulls*it and acted accordingly. Pretty outstanding result, given the recent suicidal tendencies of people in Western block elections.

Congratulations Turkey, this man will still be in power even in diapers.

[CZInform]

Nearly 50% ? What nonsense, what European country gets such a margin with around 90% turnout? If 50% is polarized then what is winning with 20-30%? Really poor level of argument.

[Out_of_ordinary_senses]

Whole speech you criticised Erdogan and said that he control the media unfairly 😡
Remember that I'm not from turkey.

Congrats to the turks, ignore the haters
