Allegations of 'being forced to sign blank records' in Bursa: 'I am warning the ballot box committee chairs'

CHP Bursa Provincial Chair Nihat Yeşiltaş announced on his X account that attempts are being made to have people sign blank records at some schools in Bursa.

In his post, Yeşiltaş stated, "Our ballot box committee members and observers are not providing early signatures regarding this irregularity and are filing objections and keeping records."

Yeşiltaş's post is as follows:

"I AM WARNING THE BALLOT BOX COMMITTEE CHAIRS!

Some ballot box committee chairs are trying to get ballot box officials to sign blank records. Our ballot box committee members and observers are not providing early signatures regarding this irregularity and are filing objections and keeping records. In some places, they are even trying to create pressure by introducing themselves as election board officials and saying that you are required to sign. Since our school supervisors and ballot box officials are trained on this matter, they are not signing the blank records. However, we are receiving information that ballot box officials from other parties are signing them. Our school supervisors and lawyers have filed their objections. I invite the provincial and district election boards and law enforcement forces to take measures. The votes of our people are entrusted to us. Our measures to protect every single vote are ready. I invite all our citizens to go to the places where they voted after the polls close and participate in the counting process."
