Polls close in Turkey's 26th general election
(MENAFN- Kuwait News Agency (KUNA)) Poll stations have closed in Turkey's 26th general election and the count is expected to begin shortly, Anadolu Agency reported on Sunday.
Polling centers across the country's 81 provinces - divided into 85 voting districts (Istanbul, Ankara and Izmir provinces have multiple districts) - are due to start the count.
More than 54 million Turks were eligible to vote in the election and a total of 175,006 polling stations were open and nearly a million Turks living abroad cast their ballots at 113 embassies and consulates.
Today's election is being held as no party won an overall majority and coalition talks failed to produce a government by the 45-day deadline initiated when President Recep Tayyip Erdogan asked Prime MInister Ahmet Davutoglu to form a government on July 9.
