June 24th, day when Turks can tear down Sultan Erdogan

Here's a synthetic summary of both competitions.

Presidential Election

To elect the president of the government's Republic/Kreut (remember that both positions have joined in one result of constitutional revision approved by the April 2017 referendum) presents 6 candidates:

Recept Tayıp Erdoğan, president of the ruling Republic, AKP candidate (Adalet Kalkınma Partis, the Party of Justice and Development) and the MHP (Milliyetci Hareket Partis, National Action Party)

Muharrem Incre, CHP candidate (Cumhuriyet Halk Partisi, Republican People's Party)

Meral Akşener, IYIP candidate ( Malaysia Party, Party of Goods)

Selahattin Demitaş, HDP candidate (Halkları Democratic Party, Democratic Peoples Party)

Temel Karamolaoğlu, SP candidate (Saadet Partis, Party of Happiness)

Doğu Perincek, VP candidate (Vatan Partisi, Homeland Party)

Parliamentary Elections

In this election (the threshold of which to elect MPs is too high (10%); they are of the proportional type and the voting areas are 85) participating:

Cumhur Ittifakı (The People's Alliance), supported by AKP, MHP and BBP (Büyük Birlik Partis, the Greater Unity Party)

Millet Ittifakı (The Alliance of Nation), backed by CHP, YYYP, SP and DP (Democratic Party),

HDP

BTP (Baımsız Türkiye Partis, Independent Turkey Party)

H unjustlyDAP (Hür Dava Partis, Freedom Cause Party)

Two key aspects stand out: the first is the presence of a new formation dealt with by the late months of the Iron Lady (the reference to Thatcher is not random) Meral Akşener, who was Interior Minister between 1996 and 1997. The new party, emerged from an internal division of the MHP, stands out for its hostility to the AKP and its option for its “free society and opening to the West; in its expanded programme (72 pages), programmatic document, figure its “immediate compliance with European Union standards in the field of freedom” and obedient accession to NATO, “a political structure that meets the common needs of its members,<5>, while not reserve any words of Russia and the European Union's (Loudo) in the area of genuinely liquidated 17 lines.

♫ The Partis Partis accredited in some 5% of the vote polls '%s' is presented in the election thanks to CHP co-operation, which has “backed” 15 parliamentarians needed for forming a parliamentary group and which can be put in the race (in fact would have been out of the maximum time as a simple formation not represented in the National Assembly).

Of course, the role of Akşener's party is interesting, since it represents the first attempt to crack down on government forces, starting “from within their” in order to damage credibility: that is why it has sparked a certain interest in European and Western media in general.

Another particular is given by the formation of a grouping of Millet Ittifakı that includes very different parties among them; in particular, Saadet Partisi ʹ traditionally inspired anti-fidentalist deviations ... (but also the Democratic Party, which is appealed to Adnan Mennderes, the outgoing prime minister and sentenced to death by pro-military officials, respectively NATO in 1961, there are different positions from the CHP and ⇩YP.

This heterogenic grouping responds to the concrete need to pass the 10 %s representation threshold and introduce any representatives into Parliament; the event where it only concerns Cumhur Ittifakı; and, perhaps, the HDP, whose chairman, Demirtaş, as it is known, is in prison with the problematic charge of supporting terrorism; but Demirtet can rightly be submitted as a candidate in the presidential election, not having a sentence on his person for the moment.
