Muharrem Ince, who dropped out of the race for the presidency of Türkiye, but received, according to preliminary data, more than 200,000 votes, has not yet made a final decision on whom he will support in a possible second round of elections, a source in the candidate's headquarters said, reported from Turkish media.
"At the moment, the evaluation process is underway regarding the candidate that (Ince) will support," the source said.
After refusing to participate in the elections, Ince did not turn to his supporters with an appeal to vote for one or another of the three remaining candidates. According to the latest polls, about 2-3% of voters were ready to vote for Ince, however, in early April, in a number of polls, this figure was higher and reached 8-9%, Ince had already been voted for during foreign voting.
Memleket party leader Ince announced his withdrawal three days before the election. According to preliminary data published by the TRT TV channel, Ince received more than 0.4% of the vote - more than 234,000 voters voted for him, including those abroad. The Turkish CEC had previously decided that despite Ince's refusal to participate in the elections, votes in his favor would not be cancelled.
