ANKARA — Prime Minister Tayyip Erdoğan spoke for the first time in Ankara since the March 30 local elections on Tuesday.

PM Erdoğan said that AK Party has increased its vote percentages by 7% since 2009 and AK Party has received more votes than CHP and MHP combined.
The Repulican People's Party (CHP) is still asking to cancel the local elections results although it has been defeated by 7.8% including a historical defeat in Istanbul.
