TL;DR Summary

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has leaned on his supporters in Sivas, a province in central Turkey, to win the upcoming runoff election. However, some voters in Sivas have expressed unease with their support for Erdogan, citing limited choices and fear of what his successor might bring. The campaign season has been marked by appeals to nationalism and xenophobia, overshadowing the daily worries of Turkey's citizens. Erdogan's parliamentary alliance has fared well in Sivas, but his own Justice and Development Party has lost tens of thousands of votes since the last election in 2018.
