ISTANBUL/ANKARA - It was midnight on election night when Turkey’s main opposition party finally believed it had overturned a decade and a half of failure at the polls and delivered a stinging defeat to the country’s master campaigner, President Tayyip Erdogan.
The party’s own data, he said, showed they had defeated Erdogan’s close ally and former prime minister Binali Yildirim, despite an exhaustive and bitter two-month campaign waged by the president and backed by an overwhelmingly pro-government media. Celebi said Turks, tiring of “divisive and polarizing language” from their leaders, warmed to a new style of politics. “This time we saw an open will to vote for Ekrem Imamoglu across all parts of society,” he said.
“Maybe we should have given another message instead of ‘survival’,” said one source at AKP headquarters in Ankara who described it as ill-suited for voters worried about living standards and local services.
