Turkey: Imamoglou’s victory a “slap” in the face for Erdogan

How is Erdogan going to react?

Erdogan could lose more than Istanbul in high-stakes electoral gamble

The general sentiment among the opposition voters is that Imamoglu will win again by an even bigger margin

AKP mayor implies Istanbul mayoral candidate Imamoglu has Greek roots

Tevfik Göksu was referring to the Pontic Greeks who traditionally lived in the region of Pontus until they were ethnically cleansed by Turkey before the 1923 population exchange

Turkish opposition takes control of Constantinople, re-run appeal still pending

The loss is especially hard for Erdogan who launched his political career in Constantinople as mayor in the 1990s

Ekrem Imamoglu: The “Greek” who “conquered” Istanbul

He ran a unifying and conciliatory campaign against his opponent backed by Erdogan
