Instead, with its wide range of candidates, the HDP managed to increase its votes all across the country, get 13,1% of the votes and pass the threshold easily.<\/span><br \/>\n<span lang=\"TR\">During the election campaign, HDP\u2019s offices, meetings and other activities have been attacked more than a hundred times. Two of its offices and one of its meetings were bombed. Three people died, tens of them were wounded. Tens of its election observers were taken under custody just two days before the election.<\/span><br \/>\n<span lang=\"TR\">Nevertheless, the election results show that there is a big electoral realignment from the governmental party of Islamist Justice and Development Party (AKP) to the HDP and the far right Nationalist Movement Party (MHP), and some from the social democrat Republican People\u2019s Party (CHP) to HDP. If we compare the results from this election with the previous parliamentary elections that took place in 2011: AKP dropped from 49,5% (327 seats) to 40,9% (258 seats), CHP dropped from 25,9% (135 seats) to %25 (132 seats), MHP increased from 13,0% (53 seats) to 16,3% (80 seats) and HDP from 6,5% (35 seats) to 13,1% (80 seats).<\/span><br \/>\n<span lang=\"TR\">Yet AKP managed to win the first place at 57 provinces. CHP won 10 provinces, MHP&nbsp; won 1 province, and HDP won 14 provinces. The mismatch between voting rates and province alignment of the parties results from the vote concentration. HDP won the first place almost in all of the Kurdish cities with great margins. At the same time they won seats in Istanbul (the biggest city), Ankara (the capital), Izmir (the third biggest city), Bursa and Kocaeli (industrial cities) and in Mersin, Adana and Antalya in the south of the country.<\/span><br \/>\n<span lang=\"TR\">With these results, AKP failed to get 276 seats, which are required to form a government alone, for the first time since 2002. Furthermore, they fall behind the number of seats to change the constitution (367) or to hold a referendum (330) about realization of Recep Tayyip Erdogan\u2019s desire to transform the country\u2019s regime to a presidential system, and become the president himself. Also&nbsp; because of both the AKP\u2019s third term rule about being an MP and the rise of MHP and HDP, lots of prominent members of AKP have lost their parliamentary impunity and will be tried corruption charges with corruption.<\/span><br \/>\n<span lang=\"TR\">Now the country faces the problem of not knowing which parties would be able to form a coalition. High levels of political and social polarization within the society gave rise to a sentiment close to hatred against AKP and its leader Recep Tayyip Erdogan. All parties made election promises that aim to undermine the AKP\u2019s power. MHP, let alone to be in a coalition, hardly accepts to be in the parliament with HDP, and CHP+HDP do not have enough seats to form a government. Minority government is not a common practice for Turkey.<\/span><br \/>\nNo matter what happens, people were smiling in the morning of 8 June. AKP lost almost 10% of its votes and the HDP passed the threshold. President Recep Tayyip Erdohan, who was on TV channels almost every day, didn\u2019t show up to make a victory spe<a name=\"_GoBack\"><\/a>ech and didn\u2019t appear anywhere still. New government should be formed within 45 days. Otherwise the President has a duty to call for early elections. This means next few weeks are going to be very critical for the country\u2019s future.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Las elecciones parlamentarias cruciales de Turqu\u00eda concluyeron con un resultado sorprendente: Desde la implementaci\u00f3n del umbral electoral muy antidemocr\u00e1tico del 10%, el Partido de los Pueblos Democr\u00e1tica (HDP), un partido de izquierda y pro-kurdo, logr\u00f3 pasar por primera vez .<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":18452,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[61],"tags":[1609,1618],"class_list":["post-18451","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-article","tag-elecciones","tag-turquia","person-taylan-ozgur-yildiz-es"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wwwdev-transform-network-net.sociality.gr\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18451","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wwwdev-transform-network-net.sociality.gr\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wwwdev-transform-network-net.sociality.gr\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wwwdev-transform-network-net.sociality.gr\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wwwdev-transform-network-net.sociality.gr\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=18451"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/wwwdev-transform-network-net.sociality.gr\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18451\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":26162,"href":"https:\/\/wwwdev-transform-network-net.sociality.gr\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18451\/revisions\/26162"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wwwdev-transform-network-net.sociality.gr\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/18452"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wwwdev-transform-network-net.sociality.gr\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=18451"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wwwdev-transform-network-net.sociality.gr\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=18451"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wwwdev-transform-network-net.sociality.gr\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=18451"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
