Ince Withdrawal Boosts Erdogan's Chances in Turkey Election

TL;DR Summary
Muharrem Ince, one of the four candidates in Turkey's presidential election, has withdrawn from the race, citing a smear campaign against him. Ince's withdrawal could boost the chances of President Tayyip Erdogan's main opponent, Kemal Kilicdaroglu. Ince called on voters to support his Homeland Party and criticised the opposition, saying they would blame him if they lost the election. Ince was a former deputy of the centre-left Republican People's Party and came second in the 2018 election.
