Difference: 15,823
Completion of the recount of the invalid votes: 90 percent
YSK Chair: "The judicial process is continuing"
AKP appealed for a recount for all the votes in Ankara and İstanbul yesterday (April 8). The YSK has three days to respond.
YSK Chair Sadi Güven said that he cannot comment on the recounts as "the judicial process is continuing," speaking to the journalists.
"The judicial process is continuing, I don't make any evaluations. It is not possible because the judicial process is continuing," he said. (AS/PT/VK)
