    Default Reconsidering Turkish military culture and secularism after the coup attempt

    A review article from Open Democracy, with a sub-title:
    How did Turkish military culture transform under the rule of AKP? And what will be the impact of the failed coup attempt on the results of the upcoming referendum in Turkey?

    Referencing the just completed election.....

    Ballot observer: "In Istanbul's Sisli, we're just taking the ballots to the Board. On TV, they're reporting our precinct counted"

    The main opposition party says it has concerns over 37% of ballot boxes containing 2.5 million votes.

    Meral Aksener: Supreme Election Board's recognition of unstamped ballot papers as valid votes is a great scandal

    Typical AKP ballot stuffing ......

    With millions of illegal voting papers made 'legal' by AKP diktat, this is a coup by #Erdogan #AKP in #Turkey!

    This footage from Sincan of #Ankara: Voting sheets authenticated after the cast in violation of the rules that require advance validation.

    Administration is stamping fake votes for making them legal. Because unstamped votes will cause trouble no matter what the board says.

    To explain: state media notes that almost all ballot boxes have been opened, opp counters that many individual ballots aren't counted yet

    KEY to voter fraud ongoing in Turkey
    Electoral law stipulates all ballots unstamped by district electoral board & ballot board are invalid. Law reversed today


    Supreme Election Board changed the ballot registration rules after voting started; the change also violates clear wording of Law N 298

    Journo: "Why did you feel the need to accept unstamped ballots?"
    Electoral Board chair: "There was no need. We just had to."

    THIS is extremely important if the trend continues.....

    Supreme Election Board says 76% of ballots opened, Yes vote is 50,36%.

    IF Erdogan does not pull in more than 51% and he is losing all the major large Turkish cities especially Istanbul he will be practically unable to move his agenda forward in the ways he assumed he could......

    This is a very big deal......

    Erdogan has officially lost the referendum in Istanbul.....
    Listen to Istanbul just now. Clanging pots. An act of protest used in #Turkey before and during Gezi protests

    9pm: Erdogan has claimed victory.

    The official election board clearly still counting many votes.

    State news agency’s vote count stuck at 98%



    Suddenly results are stopped flowing.
    Whole country is waiting.
    Turkish Elections..

    Whoa.
