TL;DR Summary

Turkey's presidential election resulted in a majority of voters rejecting President Recep Tayyip Erdogan for another term, but he may still win as he leads challenger Kemal Kilicdaroglu in the first round of voting. Erdogan has ruled Turkey for 20 years, but preliminary results suggest that he performed worse in nearly every province than he did in the last presidential election. The race will go to a May 28 runoff as neither candidate received a majority.
