CHP measures Yozgat's sentiment with a poll after its rally: They do not find the arrest justified
Immediately following its high-profile rally in Yozgat on April 19, the CHP commissioned a study in the city. The CHP poll investigated how the process initiated by the arrest of Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality Mayor Ekrem İmamoğlu and the Yozgat rally affected voting trends in the city, as well as the 'CHP perception' among Yozgat residents.
In 2023, the CHP did not field a candidate in Yozgat due to an alliance with the İYİ Party. It was observed that the vote share of the İYİ Party, which received 23.4 percent in 2023, fell to 3.6 percent. Since it did not field a candidate, the CHP's 2023 vote share was not recorded, but the percentage of those who said they would vote for the CHP if an election were held this Sunday was 29.5 percent.
According to the results of the poll conducted one week after the rally, on April 25-26, it was observed that the People's Alliance's (Cumhur İttifakı) vote share, which was 66.9 percent in 2023, fell to 51.8 percent (when undecided voters were distributed).

HIGHEST VOTE LOSS IS WITH İYİ PARTY
When compared to the 2023 general elections, it was observed that the highest vote loss was with the İYİ Party at -19.8 points, followed by the MHP at -7.7 points and the AKP at -7.4 points.
It was observed that almost 20 percent of Yozgat voters were undecided if a presidential election were held this Sunday. The rate of undecided voters regarding the first round of the presidential election was measured at 19.2 percent. When undecided voters were distributed, it was seen that Recep Tayyip Erdoğan received 49.4 percent and Ekrem İmamoğlu received 38.7 percent, and that Erdoğan could not exceed 50 percent in the first round.
YOZGAT RESIDENTS ARE NOT CONVINCED
Yozgat residents were also asked about their views on the operation against İmamoğlu and his arrest. Accordingly;
-While 42 percent of Yozgat residents found İmamoğlu's arrest justified, 58 percent said they did not find it justified.
-While the rate of those who think the corruption allegations against İmamoğlu are true was measured at 36 percent, 64 percent stated that they did not think the allegations were true.
-26 percent of Yozgat residents said they believed the terrorism allegations against İmamoğlu, while 74 percent said they did not think the terrorism allegations were true.

HALF WANT EARLY ELECTIONS
When asked about their opinions on early elections, 53 percent of Yozgat residents responded that an early election should be held. The rate of those who said 'Erdoğan would win if there were an early election' was measured at 54 percent, while the rate of those who said 'he would not win' was 46 percent. It was also observed that the rate of those who said 'Turkey would be positively affected if the opposition wins' was 47 percent.
