Turkiye May 14 Presidential elections ended inconclusively

Turkiye is headed into round two of the high stake Presidential elections after the first round ended inconclusively. Incumbent President Recep Tayyip Erdogan missed the required 50% by a whisker. His main rival Kemal Kilicdaroglu came in second with 44% of the votes. Many pre-poll surveys expected Kemal to dethrone Erdogan after 20 years. But, when that didn't happen reports started floating around of electoral malpractice.
