After Turkish president Erdogan claimed victory in a referendum that could give him sweeping powers, the opposition in Turkey said they are to call for a recount of over 35 percent of the votes over doubts of violations that took place.
The opposition have been protesting against a decision by the High Electoral Board to accept ballots without an official stamp on them. After the end of yesterday's referendum state-run media reported 51 percent of voters supported the constitutional changes offered by Erdogan, while 49 percent voted in favour of the "No" campaign.
Most of the planned changes could come into effect after Turkey’s next presidential election in 2019, but 3 out of 18 reforms would enter into force in a month.
