Title: "The Countdown Begins: When to Expect Results from Turkey Election Polls" Turkey's much-awaited election day has finally arrived, and people are now on the edge of their seats to find out who the next leader of the country will be. For those eagerly waiting to know what time the polls will close and when to expect results, here's what you need to know. Polling stations across Turkey began operating at 08:00 A.M. and will remain open until 5:00 P.M tonight, which is 9 hours of voting. Therefore, we can expect the polls to close at precisely 5:00 P.M. sharp. As to when we can expect results, that's a bit trickier. We can predict that shortly after polls close, the High Election Board will begin its counting process. But with Turkey's introduction of electronic voting in the last few years, the counting process has become less time-consuming. However, the actual announcement of the results entirely depends on how close the race is and if any disputable irregularities are found. If it's a clear win for a candidate, we can expect the results to be announced relatively quickly, within a few hours of the polls closing. But suppose the elections are neck-to-neck and not clear who the winner is. In that case, the results may be delayed, and we may not know the outcome for several days, or it may even have to go to a runoff election. In conclusion, while we can expect the polls to close at 5:00 P.M, predicting the announcement of the results is impossible. It is now just a waiting game for the citizens of Turkey and the world to finally find out the outcome of this critical election. We will bring you the live updates as soon as we have them.
