AKP's Istanbul poll revealed! The gap between İmamoğlu and Kurum draws attention

Istanbul is at the top of the list of cities where the outcome of the March 31, 2024 local elections is most anticipated.

In the mega-city, while the race is expected to be between the AKP and MHP candidate Murat Kurum and the CHP candidate, incumbent Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality (İBB) Mayor Ekrem İmamoğlu, eyes are also turned toward election polls.

In addition to public opinion research companies, political parties are also conducting their own polls. Finally, the results of the poll conducted by the AKP in Istanbul have emerged.

Sözcü columnist İsmail Saymaz shared the AKP's Istanbul poll in his column today. According to the poll, there is a 5.3-point gap between İmamoğlu and Kurum.

Here is Saymaz's column;

İmamoğlu is 5.3 points ahead in the AK Party's poll

AK Party's Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality mayoral candidate Murat Kurum said in a television program he attended the other day, "According to our measurements, we will win by a 1.7-point margin." However, the information I have received does not confirm Kurum's claim.

As far as I have learned... The AK Party experienced disappointment in its latest research conducted in Istanbul.

In this research conducted with three thousand people, it was determined that İmamoğlu is 5.3 points ahead after the undecided voters were distributed.

The following results were obtained in the research:

• Ekrem İmamoğlu: 44.7
• Murat Kurum: 39.4
• Meral Danış Beştaş: 4.5
• Azmi Karamahmutoğlu: 4
• Mehmet Altınöz: 3.8
• Buğra Kavuncu: 1.5
• Others: 2.1

Allegedly... In the research the AK Party had conducted with 40 thousand people last week, a 4.5-point gap was identified.
