In addition to early elections, the re-nomination of AKP Chairman and President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan is also being discussed on the political agenda.
Bupar Research and Consultancy Company shared the results of its public opinion survey on the subject. The research, which was conducted with 2,420 participants in 12 regions and 26 sub-regions determined by TUIK between December 23 and 31, sought answers to numerous questions.
The survey asked the question, "Should the constitutional rule that a president can only be elected for two terms be changed so that President and AKP Chairman Recep Tayyip Erdoğan can run for office again?"
