    ‘Gap can be closed in coming hours’: Analyst

    Seda Demiralp, professor of political science at Istanbul’s Isik University, tells Al Jazeera that the vote gap between Erdogan and Kilicdaroglu will likely narrow in the coming hours as more results come in.

    “The gap is low, lower than expected, considering it’s [according to state news agency] Anadolu Agency, and also there are other sources that give more knife-edge results. I would say this is a more optimistic scenario to the opposition because many were fearing in the opposition that Erdogan would win with a landslide victory,” Demiralp said.

    “It looks like the gap can be closed in the upcoming hours. That’s what we saw in the previous round. That’s what we saw in [the] 2018 elections. Typically we see Anadolu Agency starting … votes [for the incumbent] with a much higher rate and the margin closes over the next hours. So we may expect a similar change and a closing of the gap.”
