How voting works in Turkey:
In July 2018, a month after Erdogan won the presidency, Turkey transitioned from a parliamentary to a presidential system, abolishing the post of prime minister. Presidential and parliamentary elections are held on the same day every five years.
There are three presidential candidates: Recep Tayyip Erdogan (AK Party), Kemal Kilicdaroglu (CHP), and Sinan Ogan (ATA).
Any candidate who can secure more than half the presidential vote on May 14 will be the winner. If no candidate can secure that, there will be a second runoff between the two top contenders two weeks later.
2022 electoral changes
In a law passed by the parliament in April 2022, the election threshold decreased from 10 percent to seven percent.
More importantly, the amendments changed the way seats are distributed among member parties of an alliance.
In the past, parliamentary seats were allocated according to the total votes mustered by an alliance through common candidate lists prepared by allied political parties.
With the changes, the seats will be allocated according to the votes that each party receives individually.
