Municipalities usurped in Kurdistan with military and police votes

The AKP-MHP government usurped at least 12 provincial and district municipalities with military and police votes.

The Peoples' Equality and Democracy Party (DEM Party) announced yesterday that 46.901 transported voters were identified in 31 centres in Kurdistan. Transported soldiers and policemen were exposed yesterday in Şırnak, Hakkari, Siirt, Kars, Ağrı and Iğdır as they travelled en masse to the polling stations.

The DEM Party won in many centres where voters were transported, but in some places, municipalities were usurped with heavily transported military and police votes.

According to the 'unofficial' results, the AKP-MHP usurped the municipalities in at least 12 provinces and districts in yesterday's elections with the votes of soldiers and police officers who were transported to the region to vote. Considering the votes of soldiers and police officers transported to the towns, this number is estimated to be at least 30.

The DEM Party will object to the election results in these places.
