Turkey had a runoff election after a close result and a third party splitting the vote. Imagine if that happened in 92 back in the states. If by dictatorship you mean the military coups from its history -- that is an interesting and unique-in-the-world situation where Atatürk granted power to the military to overthrow the government if they strayed too far from his Kemalist ideal of the republic, probably the only coups in human history which the end goal was to force the people to have another election (with the not so subtle threat to not make them have to come back again -- this is the origin of the term "deep state" which became popularized in the US recently) Now there is evidence that the US had a hand in some of the original (pre-2016) coups. I would be wary to oversimplify Turkish politics.
