ANKARA - Istanbul’s ousted opposition mayor is leading President Tayyip Erdogan’s AK Party candidate by three percentage points ahead of next month’s re-run mayoral election, according to an opinion poll conducted for the AKP campaign.
Authorities annulled the result after AKP complaints of irregularities, ending Imamoglu’s mayoral term after less than three weeks and calling a new election for June 23. AKP officials hope that Erdogan, a veteran of more than a dozen election victories, can turn the vote in favor of their candidate, former prime minister Binali Yildirim.
Party officials have said Erdogan may also need a change of tone after a bitter and confrontational AKP campaign failed to achieve victory in March. The pro-Kurdish HDP party has not put up a candidate in Istanbul, leaving most Kurds to vote for Imamoglu. It has also indicated that it would support Imamoglu in June, but the AKP also attracts some Kurdish support and will be seeking to build on that next month.
