Scandalous footage in Şanlıurfa's Halfeti district! Pre-marked ballots for AKP found

In Şanlıurfa, where many reports of fighting have emerged during the March 31 Local Elections, ballots marked in favor of the AKP have now been discovered.

"THERE ARE MANY MORE VOTES WE COULD NOT REACH"

In the footage shared by journalist Muhammed Vefa, a member of the New Welfare Party (YRP) is seen saying the following:

"This is our Halfeti district in Şanlıurfa. As you can see, our friends have brought us votes marked in favor of the AK Party. Of course, they know they cannot win, but they are resorting to all kinds of dirty tricks.

These are votes that were marked 2-3 days ago. These votes are intended to be used in Halfeti. We were able to reach a few of them, but there are many more votes we could not reach."
