Turkey's Presidential Runoff Election: Erdogan's Chance for Victory?

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan is in a tight election race with opposition leader Kemal Kilicdaroglu, with a make-or-break runoff against his chief challenger possible as the final votes were counted. Erdogan said he could still win but would respect the nation's decision if the race went to a runoff vote in two weeks. The results will determine if Turkey remains under Erdogan's control or resumes the more democratic path promised by his main rival. The election largely centered on domestic issues such as the economy, civil rights, and a February earthquake that killed more than 50,000 people.
