Erdogan's Rival Ince Withdraws from Turkey Election Amid Scandal.

TL;DR Summary
Turkish opposition candidate Muharrem İnce has withdrawn from the presidential race just three days before the election, which could benefit the main opposition candidate, Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu, and even allow him to claim outright victory in the first round. İnce's withdrawal comes after a sex tape allegedly showing him surfaced on social media, which he denied as fake. President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan is facing the toughest reelection battle of his 20-year rule on Sunday, as Turkey grapples with double-digit inflation.
