Thanks for the information; I was unaware that Turkey has compulsory voting. Is there a credible opposition party to AKP, or a smattering of smaller parties?

- akiselev 10y agoThere is a long list of opposition parties in Turkey but few of them have any power [1]. The main opposition party with about a quarter of MPs (vast majority representing urban districts) is the Republican People's Party, which was the first political party in Turkey post WWI as well as the one led by Ataturk during his secular revolution.
