Hürriyet columnist Abdulkadir Selvi has written about the potential "presidential race" within the CHP.
CHP EVERY OTHER DAY
In his column today, Selvi asked, "Who is ahead in the presidential candidacy race within the CHP?" having previously written articles titled "Who will İmamoğlu leave his seat to?" and "Will there be a tsunami in the CHP?"
Thus, Selvi has focused on the CHP in 3 of his last 6 articles.
COULD ÖZEL SLIP THROUGH AND BECOME PRESIDENT?
In his latest piece, Selvi stated, "İmamoğlu and Yavaş have begun to take positions for the presidential election," and raised the following questions:
"1 A struggle for the presidential candidacy has begun between Ekrem İmamoğlu and Mansur Yavaş.
2 Ekrem İmamoğlu is strong within the CHP. Mansur Yavaş, on the other hand, has significant public support.
3 They are drawing a profile where Ekrem İmamoğlu appears as the candidate of the globalists, while Mansur Yavaş appears as the candidate of domestic and national elements.
4 They say that if two eggs collide, one breaks but the other cracks. In this situation, could a third name slip through?
5 If the struggle between İmamoğlu and Yavaş reaches a point that divides the party, could Özgür Özel slip through and become the presidential candidate?
6 I will mention a formula that has started to be voiced in Ankara's political circles. If Ekrem İmamoğlu uses his power within the party to become the CHP's candidate, could Mansur Yavaş emerge as the candidate of the center-right?"
Selvi wrote, "This process is painful but equally volatile. However, it is a fact that we will witness a fierce struggle."
