"The redo of the Istanbul vote also threatens to further de-stabilize the Turkish economy, which has entered a recession. The Turkish lira crashed spectacularly last summer over investor concerns about Erdogan's policies. It has been sliding again in recent weeks and on Tuesday it hit its lowest level since October."
Looks like things will have to get worse there, before they get better.

What a great idea! Suggest it to Hillary to bring up and putsch.
The leftist way: vote until we get the results the left wants.

Mayor’s office in Istanbul flat out stolen by Erdogan.
“Erdogan told reporters that former Prime Minister Binali Yildirim would again run as the ruling party’s candidate for mayor. On Tuesday, the Interior Ministry appointed Istanbul’s governor Ali Yerlikaya as acting mayor of the city.”

Just like the (D)’s - keep making people vote until you get what you want.

Well, at least they know how many votes they have to manufacture. Keep doing it until you get it right.
