Peoples' Democratic Party (HDP) has demolished the 10 percent election threshold in Turkey and North Kurdistan, getting 13.1 percent of the votes from 6 million 52 thousand voters and granting 80 seats in the Turkish parliament. The party has increased its votes in Istanbul by 100 percent and has been the only party sending deputies to the parliament in many cities.

Besides exceeding the election threshold as a party for the first time and thus hindering the AKP from coming to the power alone, HDP also multiplied its votes in Turkey and North Kurdistan.
