Backstage activity heats up before local elections: 4 metropolitan candidates in CHP are certain, 2 names are on the agenda for change

While the 'change' debates that began in the CHP following the May 14 and 28 elections continue, work is also ongoing for the local elections to be held on March 31, 2024.

It is a matter of curiosity which names the CHP, which is preparing to go to an ordinary Congress in November, will nominate for metropolitan cities in the local elections.

4 METROPOLITAN CANDIDATES FINALIZED

According to the news in Cumhuriyet; there are four mayors in the CHP whose candidacy is considered certain. It is almost certain that Istanbul Metropolitan Mayor Ekrem İmamoğlu, Ankara Metropolitan Mayor Mansur Yavaş, Adana Metropolitan Mayor Zeydan Karalar, and Mersin Metropolitan Mayor Vahap Seçer will be candidates again.

'CHANGE' VOICES IN TWO METROPOLITAN CITIES

According to the backstage, Muğla Mayor Osman Gürün and Tekirdağ Metropolitan Mayor Kadir Albayrak stand out as the ones for whom change is a strong possibility.

TWO NAMES IN ANTALYA!

In Antalya, which is a metropolitan city, two names are on the agenda for candidacy. In addition to the current mayor Muhittin Böcek, it is known that CHP's Muratpaşa Mayor Ümit Uysal also wants to be a candidate for this position.

BALIKESİR, BURSA, DENİZLİ...

The CHP is also focusing on provinces that were lost by a small margin or due to cooperation in the last local elections. It wants to turn the fact that the total vote of the opposition in the general elections was higher than the ruling bloc into an opportunity, especially in metropolitan cities such as Balıkesir, Bursa, and Denizli.
