Political Preferences

SUMMARY

In this section, political preferences and the direct distribution of votes in Turkey are examined. In addition, the focus is on the importance of the group of “grey-zone voters,” consisting of undecided voters and those who say they will not vote, as well as the shifting balance of power between the People’s Alliance (Cumhur İttifakı) and the Nation Alliance (Millet İttifakı).

• If there were an election today, with your current mood, would you go to the polls to vote?
• If there were an election today, which party would you vote for? (both direct and with undecided voters redistributed)
• Who do you think can solve Turkey’s most urgent and important problems?
• Who would you want to govern Turkey?
• If Recep Tayyip Erdoğan WINS the upcoming presidential election, do you think this would be positive or negative for Turkey?
• Do you think a leader emerging from the opposition parties would govern the country better?
