Historic decision on CHP presidential candidate is imminent! All eyes are on that date

CHP Chairman Özgür Özel’s highly anticipated roadmap announcement has been postponed due to the fire tragedy in Bolu Kartalkaya that claimed the lives of 78 people. Özel, who was expected to announce his party's future strategies and the method for determining a presidential candidate, moved his announcement to a later date due to the tragedy.

TO BE DISCUSSED IN THE MYK AND GROUP MEETING

According to a report by Habertürk, the issue of presidential candidacy is being intensely debated within the party. Özel is expected to evaluate the details regarding the candidate selection process at the CHP Central Executive Board (MYK) meeting. It is also stated that Özel will highlight the primary election method during the group meeting to be held on Tuesday.

CANDIDACY PROCESS TO BE PUT TO MEMBERS

If a decision is made to hold a primary, the CHP's presidential candidate will be determined by the votes of approximately 1.5 million CHP members.

This step is considered an important innovation in terms of strengthening intra-party democracy and prioritizing the views of the grassroots.

While the date for Özgür Özel’s announcement has not yet been finalized, the CHP base and the public are closely following how the process will take shape.
