Özgür Özel's vote share statement: We will exceed the margin from the last election in Istanbul

With only days left until the March 31 elections, political party leaders are making statements regarding the agenda in the broadcasts they attend.

CHP Chairman Özel, during his appearance on Halk TV, drew attention to Malatya, Giresun, and Kilis, stating, 'We will win those places.'

Stating that the gap has widened in Eskişehir, Özgür Özel said, "I have been there 3 times; it is one of the places I value most, and we will continue with Yılmaz Hoca, a 54-year-old woman of the Republic, receiving an incredible number of votes."

WILL THERE BE ANY LAST-MINUTE DEVELOPMENTS REGARDING ALLIANCES?

"Anything can happen until March 3, but after March 3, it is very difficult. I have no intention of opposing the opposition; there will be no inter-party agreement, but there will be a 'conscience alliance' of voters at the ballot box. In other words, voters might say, 'I will do what is right here' rather than letting the AKP win right before their eyes."

WILL THERE BE AN ELECTION STATEMENT FROM DEMİRTAŞ?

Speaking about the claims that Selahattin Demirtaş will make a statement, Özel said, 'Frankly, I do not expect such a statement.'

"OUR NATION IS OPPOSED TO THIS"

When someone uses state power to wag their finger, our nation stands against it. Because we all stand behind the national will. In this geography, whenever the state and the nation have competed, the nation has always won.

STATEMENT ON VOTE SHARE

Making a statement regarding the vote share expected on election night, Özel said, "We will exceed the margin from the last election in Istanbul."

Speaking confidently about Ankara as well, Özgür Özel stated, "Winning 10 municipalities in Ankara would not be a surprise."

STRIKING REMARKS ABOUT HAMZA DAĞ

Commenting on the AKP's Izmir candidate Hamza Dağ, Özel said that Dağ's statements and visits do not reflect the truth.

Stating that he does not find Hamza Dağ's visits to taverns sincere, Özel added, "He is making statements that are diametrically opposed to the AKP's logic. There is not a single AKP municipality that permits alcohol. The AK Party's Izmir candidate is engaging in top-tier deception."

ASSESSMENT OF 'ZÜBÜK'

Evaluating the harsh words Erdoğan used for the New Welfare Party (Yeniden Refah Partisi), Özel said, 'While we try to maintain a certain distance from the rhetoric of the names we form alliances with and avoid showing very harsh reactions, Erdoğan is labeling his own brother as a "Zübük" (a political opportunist).'
